Mechanical Assessment

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

This vehicle presents a highly stable roadworthiness profile with a consistent pattern of clean MOT passes. The most recent test on 8 August 2025 at 109,161 miles resulted in a pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This indicates the car is currently in a mechanically sound state according to DVSA standards, maintaining a trend of zero defects across the last four successful tests. The mileage is typical for a 2013 model, averaging roughly 8,397 miles per year. Usage has remained steady, with the odometer moving from 89,786 miles in July 2022 to 109,161 miles by August 2025. There are no erratic jumps in mileage or significant periods of inactivity that would suggest neglect or hidden deterioration from standing. The record is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age, showing no recurring failures or advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake discs, or exhaust emissions. A single failure occurred on 29 June 2022 at 89,784 miles, though the record lists no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a minor administrative or quick-fix issue resolved by the pass five days later. A physical inspection should focus on areas the MOT tester may overlook or that develop between tests. Given the age and mileage, check for chassis corrosion and the condition of the coil springs. Verify the service history for oil changes and timing belt replacements, as the MOT record confirms legal roadworthiness but does not verify the preventative maintenance required for long-term engine reliability.
