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 road‑worthy; the 8 April 2026 MOT at 177,688 mi recorded a pass with no defects, indicating a stable maintenance trend after the earlier 2019 failures were remedied. The record shows a return to clean passes from 2020 onward, suggesting that the most recent owner addressed the identified issues. At 36 years old the odometer reads 177,688 mi, equating to roughly 4,900 mi per year – well below the average for a car of this vintage. Between the March 2025 test (177,674 mi) and the April 2026 test the mileage rose only 14 mi, confirming very light recent use. No periods of rapid accumulation appear, and the mileage history is consistently sparse, which generally reduces wear on major components. The 2019 failure highlighted excessively worn outer anti‑roll bar linkage pins on both front sides, a condition that should have been rectified; a buyer ought to verify the current condition of those bushings and the overall suspension integrity. The 2021 test flagged slightly defective headlamp reflectors and tyre cracking on both axles, so a visual inspection of the headlamp aim, reflector surfaces, and tyre tread depth is warranted. The rear fog‑lamp switch and front side repeater that failed in 2019 should be confirmed operational, and a routine check of brake discs, pads, and any corrosion on structural panels will complete a thorough appraisal.
