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

The most recent MOT on 2025-07-30 resulted in a FAIL, though the same mileage (87,647) was recorded as the previous pass just one day earlier—suggesting the failure was addressed and retested the same day. The fail items included two front tyres worn close to the legal limit with edge wear, a rear tyre over ten years old, and a faulty parking brake on one side. The screen chip was noted but not severe. A recurring pattern is front tyre wear—inner edge wear was flagged in both 2024 and 2025 MOTs. This often points to alignment or suspension issues, such as worn ball joints, track rod ends, or incorrect toe settings. The 2024 MOT also noted front sub-frame corrosion, though not seriously weakened. In 2022, braking imbalance and binding were recorded, indicating possible caliper or hose issues. The trend appears to be worsening: MOTs in 2023 and 2024 passed, but 2025 brought multiple new or unresolved concerns—especially the age and condition of tyres and the parking brake failure. Tyre age and wear are consistent over the last two tests, suggesting ongoing alignment or suspension wear not yet rectified. The mileage—87,647 over 16 years (approx.
