2020 Jeep Compass 1.4L Petrol · CE20 OOW

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT on 14 May 2026 at 48,848 miles. The tester noted front brake disc wear but no excessive lipping, which remains within acceptable limits. The maintenance trend appears stable; the 2023 failure on the off‑side front anti‑roll bar linkage ball joint was addressed and no further defects have been recorded. Across six years the odometer shows 48,848 miles, averaging roughly 8,100 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 2020 model. The record shows regular annual testing with no large gaps, indicating consistent MOT compliance. The increase from 26,427 miles in May 2023 to 48,848 miles in May 2026 reflects a moderate annual rise, not suggesting any sudden high‑kilometre periods. A prospective buyer should examine the front brake discs for thickness and surface condition, confirming that wear remains above the legal minimum. The off‑side front tyre, flagged for a cut in May 2025, should be inspected for progression of the damage and tread depth. The anti‑roll bar linkage ball joint, which failed in 2023, warrants a check for play or corrosion, as the component is critical to suspension geometry. Inspection of the suspension bushes, coil springs and any binding in the rear brakes will further verify that the earlier defect has not recurred. Visual assessment for rust on the chassis and exhaust system will complete the appraisal, ensuring no hidden structural concerns.
