2008 Daihatsu Sirion 1.0L Petrol · GP08 BWB

The 2008 Daihatsu Sirion passed its most recent MOT on 19 June 2025 at 82,986 miles with no defects recorded, showing a stable roadworthiness trend across the last three test cycles. The vehicle cleared every pass test without advisories, and the only failures logged were on 18 June 2025 at 82,983 miles and 21 June 2024 at 80,011 miles, both with no defects recorded by the tester. Such zero-defect failures typically indicate administrative or presentation issues at the test centre rather than mechanical faults, so the history shows no worsening condition. Recorded mileage sits at 82,986 against an 18-year lifespan, averaging roughly 4,610 miles per year. The car covered 3,736 miles between the June 2023 test at 76,248 miles and the June 2024 test at 80,014 miles, then only 2,972 miles to the June 2025 reading. This low annual use suggests extended standing periods, which can allow corrosion and perished rubber components to develop despite low drivetrain wear. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake calipers, as low-mileage cars left idle often hide degraded flexible mounts and binding brakes not caught in a clean MOT. The DVSA record shows no structural integrity concerns, exhaust emissions failures, or corrosion advisories across the timeline. Given the absent advisories and repeated clean passes, previous owners appear to have kept basic statutory testing current without neglect of consumables. Physical checks on tyre sidewall condition, underbody rust, and fluid contamination remain sensible before purchase given the vehicle's age.
