2003 Chrysler PT Cruiser 2.1L Diesel · HT52 BVU

The PT Cruiser presents a current roadworthy status following its most recent MOT pass on 17 November 2022 at 95,184 miles, with the maintenance trend appearing stable across the recorded history. The vehicle cleared the final test without defects after two earlier failures in 2021 and 2022 that also recorded no defects, indicating administrative or presentation issues rather than mechanical faults. No advisories or worn components appear anywhere in the five-year record. The mileage pattern is strikingly low for a 2003 vehicle, showing just 95,184 miles over roughly 23 years, an average of about 4,138 miles annually. The records reveal almost no accumulation: the October 2021 failure and pass both show 95,183 miles, the November 2022 failure and pass show 95,183 and 95,184 respectively, and the November 2020 pass logged 95,185 miles. That 2020 figure exceeding later readings suggests a minor odometer transcription error, but the flat profile confirms extended periods of little use. Sparse clean tests give limited insight into consumable wear. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and likely long standing periods that accelerate rubber perishing and surface corrosion. The tester noted no structural integrity concerns or exhaust emissions failures across the record, yet dormant storage commonly hides seized calipers and underbody rust not caught in a static test. Verify the odometer discrepancy against service stamps before purchase.
