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

The vehicle holds a roadworthy status following the most recent MOT test on 4 July 2025 at 107,989 miles, where the tester logged a pass with no defects recorded. Maintenance trend across the five available annual tests reads as stable, with a single irregular failure on 18 July 2024 at 94,841 miles that carried no defect entries, promptly cleared by a pass at 94,883 miles later that same day. No recurring suspension, brake, or structural issues surface in the official record. Mileage accumulation tracks typical for a 2017 registration. The odometer moved from 60,085 miles at the 22 July 2022 examination to 77,313 miles by 12 July 2023, then to 94,883 miles at the 18 July 2024 pass, reaching 107,989 miles in July 2025. Annual use averaged near 12,000 miles, showing steady private or light fleet operation without dormant gaps or rapid surges. The sparse history shows every pass declaring zero advisories, suggesting previous keepers either corrected wear preemptively or the car remained within test limits. A buyer should still arrange an independent physical inspection given MOT snapshots capture only test-day condition. The unexplained July 2024 fail with no defects warrants verification of paperwork and DVSA records to rule out administrative anomaly. Inspect suspension bushes, coil springs, binding calipers and brake disc wear beneath the car. Probe structural integrity for corrosion on sills and subframes. Confirm exhaust emissions under real load and measure tyre tread and wiper rubber, as consumables escape MOT advisories when above thresholds. The clean sheet implies reasonable upkeep but does not guarantee component life remaining.
