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 presents a stable roadworthiness profile, evidenced by a clean pass in the most recent MOT test on 28 April 2026 at 100,011 miles. The maintenance trend is currently improving, as the car transitioned from a minor advisory in the previous year to a zero defect result in the latest inspection. This suggests that primary structural integrity and mechanical components are currently meeting safety standards without immediate failure. The mileage accumulation is remarkably consistent for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per annum. There is a notable period of higher usage between March 2022 (82,811 miles) and May 2023 (93,430 miles), where over 10,000 miles were covered in just enough months. However, usage has since moderated, with roughly 3,400 miles recorded between the 2025 and 2026 tests, indicating a predictable pattern of wear on consumable-related parts. A buyer should conduct a physical inspection of the front suspension geometry, as the May 2025 test at 96,588 miles flagged the offside front outer tyre as worn close to the legal limit and on the edge. This specific wear pattern often indicates an alignment issue or worn lower control arm bushes. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, verifying the condition of the way bushings and steering components is essential to ensure no further lateral degradation is occurring beyond standard wear.
