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 May 2025 at 102,688 miles with no recorded defects. The record shows a consistent pattern of passing after a same‑day failure, and no new advisories have appeared, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Across a 22‑year lifespan the car has accumulated 102,688 miles, roughly 4,700 miles per annum, which is low for its age. Mileage increments between the 2023, 2024 and 2025 tests are modest – 2,555 miles from July 2023 to May 2024 and 3,687 miles to May 2025 – suggesting steady, moderate use rather than periods of intensive driving or prolonged storage. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of suspension components such as bushings and coil springs, as age‑related wear can emerge despite low mileage. Inspect brake discs and pads for any glazing or uneven wear, and examine tyre tread depth and uniformity. A visual check for surface rust, especially on wheel arches and under‑carriage, will confirm that the low‑mileage usage has not concealed corrosion. Ensuring these items are sound will complement the clean MOT history and support a confident purchase.
