Mechanical Assessment

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

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in June 2025 with no recorded defects. However, the maintenance trend shows a pattern of reactive rather than proactive care. While the latest test indicates a clean result, previous failures in 2024 and 2025 reveal a recurring failure to address lighting, braking components, and consumables promptly. This suggests the owner typically only addresses mechanical issues once they necessitate a test failure rather than performing routine inspections between annual intervals. The mileage progression is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,400 miles per annum. Between the June 2023 test at 82,115 miles and the 2024 test at 93,089 miles, the car covered 10,974 miles, with another 11,401 miles recorded in the following year. This steady accumulation indicates typical family-car usage which explains the accelerated wear observed on braking hardware and suspension components throughout the record. A buyer must conduct a close physical inspection of the suspension and braking system. The June 2023 test at 82,115 miles flagged perished lower arm bushes and reduced damping on the nearside front shock absorber, issues that affect handling precision and tyre wear. Furthermore, the record shows a persistent history of pitted and scored brake discs across both axles, with the offside rear pads failing for being below the legal limit in 2025. You should verify that the current discs and pads have been recently recently and are not thin or corroded, as the history indicates these components are run until they reach the absolute limit.
