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

Most recent MOT outcome (26 Jan 2026) The car passed the overall test, but the MOT report flagged three front‑wheel issues that also appeared on the earlier test that day: the off‑side front direction indicator is slightly discoloured, the off‑side front outer tyre shows side‑wall cracking, and there is a shallow cut in the same tyre. In addition the rear fog lamp was recorded as not working. These are the only defects listed for the latest MOT. Recurring pattern Front‑tyre condition is the only defect that recurs across the three years of MOT data. In 2024 a near‑side front tyre also had a shallow cut, and in 2025 the off‑side headlamp aim was too high – a separate lighting issue. The repeated tyre‑sidewall damage suggests the front tyres are the weakest point on the car and may be approaching the end of their service life. The lighting faults (fog lamp, headlamp aim, direction indicator) also appear intermittently, indicating a need to check the electrical system and bulb alignment. Trend analysis Overall the MOT history is relatively clean – only one outright failure each year and no major safety‑critical defects such as brakes, suspension or exhaust problems. However the front‑tyre damage has persisted rather than resolved, so the trend for tyre wear is slightly worsening. The lighting faults have not shown a clear direction; they appear sporadically but are easy to remedy.
