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 demonstrates a stable and positive maintenance trajectory, confirmed by the most recent MOT pass on 15 April 2026 at 31,961 miles with zero defects recorded. This clean result suggests the current owner has addressed previous concerns and maintained the vehicle to a high standard. The absence of advisories in the last two consecutive tests indicates that the mechanical condition is currently sound and free from systemic failures. The recorded mileage of 31,961 miles over a five-year period equates to an average of approximately 6,392 miles per annum, which aligns with typical usage patterns for a premium SUV. The consistent, incremental mileage accumulation between the 2024, 2025, and 2026 tests suggests the vehicle has been in regular operation rather than sitting idle for extended periods. This steady usage profile is generally preferable for modern diesel mild-hybrid systems, as it reduces the risk of issues associated with long-term storage, such as battery degradation or seized brake components. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on the front axle, specifically looking for signs of uneven tyre wear that previously triggered advisories in April 2024. While the tyres were noted as worn close to the legal limit at 19,631 miles, the subsequent clean passes suggest these were replaced. Verify the current tread depth and ensure the alignment remains true, as uneven wear on the front tyres can indicate underlying suspension geometry issues or bush fatigue. Given the complexity of the all-wheel-drive system and MHEV powertrain, confirm that the vehicle displays no warning lights during a cold start and that the transmission shifts smoothly through all gears.
