2016 Telee 0.3L Petrol · CL12 BAD

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status following a clean pass on July 14, 2025 at 2,736 miles. The maintenance trend shows an improving trajectory, moving from recorded failures in previous years to two consecutive passes with no recorded defects or advisories. This suggests that whatever mechanical issues previously identified have been addressed, and the vehicle is currently in a stable state regarding its MOT compliance. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 274 miles per year. Between the June 2022 test and the July 2025 test, the car covered only 1,319 miles. This pattern indicates the vehicle sits for long periods or undergoes only very short journeys. While this reduces wear on the drivetrain, suspension, and engine, it introduces specific risks associated with stagnation, such as rubber degradation, perished seals, and the potential for internal corrosion on brake components due to lack of regular use. A buyer must conduct a thorough physical inspection focusing on components that suffer from long-term storage. Low-mileage cars often suffer from flat-spotted tyres and seized brake calipers if the discs are not regularly cleaned. Inspect the sidewalls for cracking and check the brake fluid for moisture ingress or contamination. Given the failures recorded in 2022 and 2023, verify that the specific reasons for those failures were properly rectified and that the structural integrity remains free of surface rust, which can accelerate when a vehicle remains stationary in damp environments.
