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 with a consistent history of passes over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in September 2025 at 72,901 miles resulted in no recorded defects, mirroring the clean results of the two preceding tests. While the car suffered a failure in September 2023, the immediate retest on the same day indicates that any identified faults were rectified promptly to return the vehicle to passing standards. The mileage pattern is notably low for a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,600 miles per year. Data shows a significant gap between the July 2022 test at 60,937 miles and the September 2023 test at 70,460 miles, representing nearly 10,000 miles covered in fourteen months. Since then, usage has slowed considerably, with only about 2,500 miles recorded annually. This low annual mileage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it increases the risk of rubber components degrading or brake components seizing due to inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the structural integrity of the chassis and suspension components, as low-mileage cars often suffer from surface corrosion and perished rubber rather than mechanical wear. Inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking and check the brake discs for heavy pitting from long periods of standing. Given the clean MOT history, the primary concern is verifying that fluids are fresh and the tyres are not dry rotting, ensuring the vehicle has not been neglected during its intervals of low-usage cycles.
