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 currently in a stable roadworthy condition with a clean maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 29 September 2025 at 54,676 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes, suggesting the car has been kept in a state of mechanical compliance. The mileage is typical for a nine year old vehicle, averaging roughly 6,075 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between November 2023 and January 2025, where the odometer rose from 40,502 to 51,996 miles. Since that period, the vehicle has covered fewer miles, adding only 2,680 miles over the following eight months leading up to the September 2025 test. The MOT history is unusually sparse regarding specific mechanical failures. While the records show failures on 13 November 2023 and 22 January 2025, the DVSA data lists no specific defects for these dates. This suggests the failures were likely due to minor administrative issues or very quick fixes that did not require detailed reporting. There are no recurring mentions of suspension bushes, brake disc corrosion, or exhaust emissions issues. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on general wear and tear that MOT testers often overlook if they do not reach a failure threshold. Check the condition of the tyre treads and the depth of the brake pads, as these consumables are not flagged in the clean record. Inspect the chassis and sills for surface corrosion, as the lack of advisories does not guarantee the absence of early-stage rust on a vehicle of this age.
