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 is currently roadworthy and demonstrates a stable maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test in January 2026 at 62,977 miles resulted in a pass with only a minor cosmetic advisory regarding a tinted indicator. This follows two years of clean records in 2024 and 2025, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have met minimum legal standards during those inspection intervals. The mileage profile is notably low for a 2013 registration, averaging approximately 4,800 miles per year. The data shows consistent usage patterns, such as roughly 3,600 miles covered between January 2025 and January 2026, and another 3,300 miles in the twelve-month period preceding that. This low annual mileage typically reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, though it can sometimes lead to age-related degradation of rubber and seals if the vehicle sits stationary for extended periods. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the front braking system, as the February 2023 test at 52,490 miles flagged pitted and scored discs along with thin pads. While these were clearly replaced or addressed to secure the subsequent passes, the buyer should verify the current thickness of the rotors and check for signs of uneven wear. Given the age of the car and the low mileage, a thorough check of the suspension bushes and perished rubber is advisable, as these components often fail due to time rather than purely mileage-driven friction.
