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

A consistent record of roadworthiness defines this vehicle, with the most recent clean pass on 13 March 2026 following a period of minor tyre and wiper defects. While the history shows a pattern of stability, a brief dip in 2025 saw a failure for an ineffective windscreen wiper and advisories regarding tyre condition, though these have since been cleared from the record. The recorded mileage of 25,732 miles is low for a seven-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,676 miles per year. This low annual accumulation suggests the car has spent significant time stationary or has been used for very short journeys, which can influence the wear patterns of rubber components and consumables differently than a high-mileage motorway vehicle. Inspection should focus on the current state of the tyres, particularly the offside rear and front sets, given the previous records of inner edge wear and perishing. The buyer should examine the tread depth across the full width of the tyres to ensure that the previously flagged uneven wear has been corrected through replacement and proper wheel alignment. During a test drive, the buyer should feel for any steering pull or vibration at speed, which could indicate that the alignment issues causing the inner tyre wear were not fully rectified. Additionally, the operation of the windscreen wipers should be verified to ensure they clear the glass without streaking, confirming the resolution of the major failure recorded in March 2025.
