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

The most recent MOT on 2025-09-04 resulted in a pass , but the vehicle had multiple defects in its previous test just one day earlier. The 2025-09-03 failure included nearside stop lamps not working , offside registration plate lamp inoperative , and excessive brake fluctuation . These issues suggest ongoing electrical and braking system vulnerabilities. The offside registration plate lamp defect recurs across multiple MOTs, indicating a persistent fault that may not have been fully resolved. The 2024 MOT history reveals a pattern of suspension and braking component wear . In December 2024, the vehicle failed due to fractured coil springs , excessive play in track rod ends , and worn rear brake pads . These issues point to structural and mechanical stress , potentially from heavy use or poor maintenance. A prior 2024 pass noted rear brake disc wear and fluctuating brakes , which may have contributed to the later failure. The trend appears to be worsening , as more severe defects emerged in the 2025 test compared to earlier entries. The vehicle’s mileage of 102,621 miles for a 10-year-old car is typical , averaging ~10,262 miles annually.
