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 currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT in September 2025 at 54,160 miles with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows significant improvement following a period of neglect in late 2023. While the car previously suffered multiple failures and advisories, the lack of defects in the latest test suggests that the previous owner addressed the outstanding mechanical and electrical issues. The mileage pattern is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,700 miles per year. There is a notable jump of over 13,000 miles between August 2022 and August 2023, followed by a steadier accumulation of roughly 7,000 miles in the subsequent years. This usage suggests the vehicle is used primarily for shorter trips or local commuting, which often leads to the corrosion seen on brake components if they are not regularly cleared by use, as evidenced in the 2023 records. A buyer should pay close attention to the braking system, as the record shows a recurring history of pitting and scoring on all four brake discs between 2023 and 2024. Although these were likely replaced or refurbished before the clean 2025 pass, a physical inspection should check for any uneven wear or premature rust on the new rotors. The 2023 failure regarding the tyre pressure monitoring system and headlamp bulbs indicates a period where basic electrical maintenance was overlooked, so verifying the functionality of all external sensors and lighting is essential.
