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

The vehicle remains roadworthy, with the most recent MOT on 15 July 2025 at 121,631 miles recording a clean pass and no recorded defects. Across five consecutive annual tests the pattern shows no deterioration, indicating a stable maintenance trend. At 13 years old the car has accumulated 121,631 miles, averaging roughly 9,300 miles per year. The mileage progression from 79,098 miles in August 2021 to 110,490 miles in August 2024 and then to the current figure demonstrates consistent, moderate use without abrupt spikes or prolonged idle periods. No gaps in testing are evident, and the mileage increments align with typical annual wear for a vehicle of this class. A prospective buyer should verify tyre tread depth and uniformity, as wear is not reflected in the MOT record. Inspect brake discs and pads for glazing or uneven wear, and check the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs for any signs of fatigue or corrosion that may not have triggered a MOT advisory. Examine the exhaust system for rust or leaks, and conduct a visual survey of the chassis for any hidden corrosion, especially around wheel arches and under‑carriage, to confirm the absence of structural issues that the MOT history does not reveal.
