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

The vehicle's most recent MOT test in January 2026 at 31,801 miles passed without defects, indicating the current roadworthiness status is satisfactory. The maintenance trend appears stable, with no worsening issues in the last two tests. However, recurring advisories for worn suspension bushes and near-legal tyre tread suggest ongoing minor wear. The 2024 test failure for a non-working rear direction indicator highlights a critical safety component that requires immediate attention. The mileage pattern shows a consistent annual average of around 2,446 miles, which is lower than typical for a vehicle of this age. The data is clean with no significant gaps or rapid mileage spikes, suggesting the vehicle was well-maintained and used sparingly. The most recent test in January 2026 at 31,801 miles reflects this low-mileage pattern, with no major wear or defects. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the rear direction indicator, as the 2024 test failure indicates it is non-functional. Additionally, the recurring advisories for worn suspension bushes and near-legal tyre tread warrant closer examination. The vehicle's low mileage suggests minimal wear on major components, but the suspension bushes and tyres require attention. The 2020 test advisory for a distorted near-side inner rim and an oil leak, though not excessive, should be investigated for any underlying mechanical issues. Finally, the 2017 test advisory for perishing rear tyres and the 2016 test for frayed seat belt stitching highlight areas of minor consumable wear that may need replacement.
