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 is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 12 March 2026 at 119,484 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows failures on 10 March 2026 and 12 March 2025, these were resolved immediately on the same or following day, suggesting a pattern of rapid rectification rather than chronic mechanical neglect. The mileage is consistent with the age of the car. It has covered approximately 12,169 miles between March 2025 and March 2026, which is slightly higher than its lifetime average of 9,191 miles per year. The jump from 97,815 miles in March 2024 to 107,305 miles in March 2025 shows a steady usage pattern without any suspicious gaps or sudden spikes in accumulation. The MOT history is unusually clean for a thirteen year old vehicle, showing no recorded advisories for suspension bushes, brake disc wear, or exhaust emissions across the last three years. This lack of data suggests either a very high standard of preventative maintenance or a lenient testing regime. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on common age-related wear that MOT testers sometimes overlook. Specifically, check for corrosion on the chassis and sills, and inspect the condition of the coil springs and dampers given the 119,484 mile odometer reading. Verify the service history for oil changes and transmission fluid flushes to ensure the mechanical health matches the clean MOT record.
