Mechanical Assessment

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

The vehicle remains in a roadworthy condition with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted on 18 August 2025 at 51,230 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the mechanical issues identified in previous years were addressed. This suggests the current owner is proactive in rectifying advisories items once they are flagged by the DVSA tester. The mileage profile is notably low for a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,700 miles per annum. The data shows consistent usage patterns, with a gap of 7,370 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 5,378 miles between August 2024 and 2025. This low annual mileage typically reduces the strain on the drivetrain and suspension, though it can sometimes lead to the gradual degradation of rubber components or brake corrosion if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and exterior trim. The 2024 test at 45,852 miles flagged thin nearside and offside front brake pads. While the 2025 pass suggests these were replaced, a physical check should verify the remaining pad life and inspect for disc scoring or pitting. Additionally, both non-obligatory mirrors have shown recurring damage since at least 2023 and 2024. While these do not affect roadworthiness, the persistent damage indicates a minor cosmetic vulnerability that should be evaluated for structural integrity and aesthetic appeal.
