Mechanical Assessment

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 in 2025-10-30 shows the vehicle passed with some minor issues including a front headlamp product on the lens, nearside and offside rear tyres slightly damaged, offside front brake pipe corroded, and nearside front coil spring corroded. A recurring mechanical pattern is evident in the MOT history, with corrosion and wear issues consistently reported across various components, including brake pipes, coil springs, and suspension components. The trend does not look to be improving, as the number of faults and their severity have increased over time. The mileage of 170,766 miles, roughly 8,538 miles per year, is typical for its age but may indicate a mix of regular use and potential periods of under-use, as lower mileage can reflect lighter use or long periods standing. The vehicle's condition trend looks to be worsening, with more serious safety and repair risks emerging over time. A buyer should inspect the vehicle in person, paying close attention to the following: - Brake pipes and hoses for signs of corrosion or damage. - Coil springs and suspension components for signs of wear or damage. - Tyres for signs of damage or excessive wear. - Rear oil leak for signs of excessive leakage. - Integral body structure for signs of corrosion.
