The 2025‑12‑29 MOT at 72,478 miles passed with no defects recorded, confirming current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance record. No previous advisories appear in the DVSA log, and each successive test from 2020 onward shows consistent pass outcomes. The mileage has risen from 24,464 miles in February 2019 to 72,478 miles by December 2025, an average annual increase of roughly 8,000 miles, which aligns with typical usage for a ten‑year‑old vehicle. The intervals between tests are regular, with no extended periods of inactivity evident, and the mileage jumps between consecutive tests remain within a narrow band of 6,000‑7,000 miles. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, and check the chassis and structural members for rust, especially around the wheel arches and sills. The exhaust system and structural integrity should also be verified, as these components often reveal hidden deterioration not captured in the MOT test. While the documented history shows no serious mechanical failures, a physical inspection remains essential to verify that the recorded pass reflects genuine condition and to detect any hidden deterioration that may not have been captured in the MOT test.
