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

This vehicle presents a stable and exceptionally clean roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 16 October 2025 at 63,058 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a consistent pattern of clean passes dating back to October 2022, indicating a vehicle that has been maintained to a high standard and is currently in a roadworthy condition. The mileage is remarkably low for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 3,941 miles per year. The distance covered between tests has remained steady, with 5,108 miles added between October 2022 and October 2023, and 5,137 miles between October 2023 and October 2024. The most recent interval shows a further 2,456 miles added by October 2025. This consistency suggests regular, light use rather than long periods of stagnation. The absence of advisories or failures across the last four years is unusual for a sixteen year old car. While the record is clean, the low mileage and age make certain areas a priority for physical inspection. A buyer should check for perished rubber components, such as suspension bushes and engine mounts, which can degrade over time regardless of mileage. Check the brake discs for surface corrosion and the tyres for age-related cracking or hardening, as these consumables often expire due to time rather than wear. Given the lack of reported structural corrosion in the MOT history, a visual check of the sills and chassis remains prudent to ensure no hidden rust has developed during its long ownership.
