AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The 2025‑10‑01 MOT at 30,749 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness standards. The recent outcome, following a prior failure on the same date at identical mileage, suggests that any earlier issues have been rectified and the maintenance trend remains stable rather than deteriorating. The mileage profile shows a steady increase of roughly 12,900 miles per year between the 2024‑10‑15 test at 17,831 miles and the 2025‑10‑01 test, which aligns with the vehicle’s age of about five years and an average annual usage of 6,150 miles. A smaller increment of 960 miles was logged between the 2024‑03‑13 test at 16,871 miles and the October 2024 test, reflecting a short interval with minimal use, but no evidence of unusually rapid mileage accumulation or long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore focus on the items flagged in earlier tests: the near‑side and off‑side headlamp aim exceeding the 4.1.2 (a) limits may indicate mis‑adjusted suspension bushes or mis‑aligned steering components, so a visual inspection of the front suspension geometry and a check of the headlamp mounting points are advisable. The deep cut in the near‑side rear tyre (5.2.3 (d) (i)) suggests possible tyre‑damage from a binding component or worn suspension parts, warranting a close examination of the rear suspension bushes, coil springs and brake calipers for binding or excessive wear. Finally, the 2024‑03‑13 test noted fitted engine and body/sill covers that restricted component access; the buyer should verify that these covers have been removed and that the underlying chassis, suspension and drivetrain elements are free from corrosion, structural damage and that all fasteners are secure.
