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

The 2025‑10‑20 MOT at 50,819 miles recorded a pass, confirming that the vehicle is presently roadworthy after the 2025‑10‑17 failure was corrected, indicating an improving maintenance trend. The odometer reading of 50,819 miles at 17 years of age equates to an average annual mileage of about 2,989 miles, a low usage rate that has remained consistent across the record; mileage rose from 45,932 miles in the 2022‑10‑14 test to 49,637 miles in the 2023‑10‑13 test, a gain of 3,705 miles in one year, then stabilised through the 2024‑10‑18 and both 2025 tests, suggesting extended periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, examine the brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, and assess the structural integrity for rust on the chassis rails and wheel arches; tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition should also be verified as routine consumable checks.
