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 road‑worthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 17 February 2026 at 148,147 miles, but the record shows a pattern of intermittent failures that suggests a generally stable condition with occasional wear‑related issues. The recent pass follows a series of earlier failures on brakes, tyres and suspension components, indicating that the most serious defects have been addressed but that wear items continue to approach legal limits. Across thirteen years the odometer reads 148,147 miles, averaging roughly 11,400 miles per year – a usage level typical for a family hatchback of this age. The mileage rose from 137,081 miles on 10 March 2025 to 148,147 miles on 17 February 2026, a climb of about 11,000 miles in under twelve months, matching the annual average and showing no abnormal gaps or periods of inactivity. A prospective buyer should give particular attention to the rear brake disc, flagged as worn on the latest test, and verify that the front brake discs and pads have been replaced or are within safe thickness. Tyre tread on all four wheels is reported as close to the 1.6 mm legal minimum, so a visual inspection of tread depth and sidewall condition is essential. The 2025 test noted reduced damping on both front shock absorbers, and earlier records show rear shock oil mist and worn suspension arm bushes; these areas merit a hands‑on check for leaks, bush wear and any audible clunks. Finally, verify that wheel fixing bolts, headlamp cleaning devices and any under‑tray fittings are correctly installed, as past failures have highlighted missing or insecure components.
