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 presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clear trend of improvement over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in March 2026 at 130,622 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the minor issues identified in previous years have been addressed. This transition from advisory notes and minor defects to a defect-free certificate suggests the current owner is proactive regarding maintenance and safety-related repairs. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's eighteen-year age bracket, averaging approximately 7,257 miles per year. Between June 2024 and March 2026, the car covered 11,654 miles, showing a steady usage pattern of roughly 5,800 miles annually in that recent period. This regularity suggests the vehicle has not been subjected to long periods of inactivity, which often leads to the degradation of rubber components and fluid breakdown in older luxury salans of this type. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the condition of the rubber components, as the records from 2022 and 2023 highlighted recurring issues with perished and damaged tyre sidewalls. While these are consumable items, the age of the vehicle makes the suspension bushes, coil springs, and bushings critical points of scrutiny. The loose exhaust silencer noted in 2022 should be verified visually to ensure the hangers and brackets have not suffered from excessive corrosion or fatigue. Given the clean history of recent tests, the primary risks remain standard age-related wear on a high-mileage luxury drivetrain rather than systemic neglect.
