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

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on the most recent inspection data. The MOT conducted on 8 December 2023 at 92,133 miles passed with no recorded defects, indicating that the car was in a compliant condition at that time. While the history shows failures in 2021 and 2022, the subsequent passes without advisories suggest the previous owner addressed any issues identified by the tester. The mileage pattern remains consistent with a low-to-use profile, averaging approximately 6,600 miles per year. There is a notable gap of 12,280 miles between the December 2021 and December 2022 tests, followed by another 20,057 miles covered between late 2022 and late 2023. This increase in annual usage during the final recorded period often accelerates the wear of rubber components and suspension bushings, though the total figure remains low for a vehicle of fourteen years age. Despite the clean sheet from the final test, a buyer should verify the current condition of components that may have caused the previous failures. Since the failures in 2021 and 2022 occurred immediately before passing tests with only negligible mileage differences, they likely involved minor items such as bulbs, wipers, or minor brake adjustments. A physical inspection should focus on checking for corrosion on the chassis and testing the integrity of the suspension arms to ensure the recent increase in mileage has not introduced new mechanical play since the 2023 record.
