Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle is in a good roadworthy condition, demonstrating a clear trend of improving maintenance. The most recent inspection conducted in February 2026 at 41,151 miles returned a pass with no recorded defects. This indicates that the mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed and that the vehicle currently meets all essential safety and emissions standards. The mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 6,850 miles per year over the six-year period. There is a notable gap of roughly 1,400 miles between March 2023 and March 2024, followed by a more significant increase of over 17,000 miles in the subsequent twenty-four months. This steady usage suggests regular road travel which is generally beneficial for vehicle components like seals and suspension compared to long periods of inactivity. While the most recent tests are clean, the 2023ion at 22,638 miles flagged both a worn offside front tyre approaching the legal limit and a thinning front brake pad. Although these were rectified given the subsequent passes, a buyer should still inspect the current state of the braking system and tyres to ensure no new wear patterns have emerged. Given the previous mention of edge tyre wear, a physical check of the front suspension geometry and alignment would be advisable to ensure the vehicle remains tracking-true.
