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

The vehicle, a 2016 Nissan Leaf, passed its most recent MOT test on 2026-02-05 at 103,626 miles with no defects recorded. However, this test was immediately followed by a failed result due to worn tyres. The maintenance trend is concerning, with recurring issues related to tyre wear and suspension components. The recent failure indicates a need for attention to these areas to maintain roadworthiness. The recorded mileage of 103,626 miles at the time of the last test suggests a typical usage pattern for its age, with approximately 10,363 miles added each year. Notable gaps in the mileage record are limited, but the rapid accumulation of 18,164 miles between 2023 and 2024 is worth noting. This increase may indicate more frequent use or a longer period of driving during this time. The overall mileage pattern is consistent with the vehicle's age, but the recent rapid increase warrants closer inspection. A buyer should be aware of the vehicle's history of tyre-related issues, with several tests failing due to worn tyres. The most recent failure also mentions worn tyres on both sides, suggesting a potential issue with the vehicle's alignment or suspension. Furthermore, the 2023 test highlighted excessively worn suspension arm ball joints, which may have contributed to the tyre wear. It is essential to inspect the tyres, suspension, and steering components in person to assess their condition and potential for further wear. Additionally, the vehicle's brake discs, which were worn but not seriously weakened in 2019, should be inspected for any signs of further degradation.
