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, but the maintenance history reveals a worsening trend regarding the rear suspension. While the most recent test on 24 October 2025 at 69,394 miles was a pass, it followed a failure just one week prior. That failure flagged the nearside rear shock absorber for a serious fluid leak, while the offside unit showed only light misting. This indicates that the previous owner addressed a critical failure only after being forced to do so, rather than performing preventative maintenance. The mileage pattern is consistent with a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 11,500 miles per year. Data shows a steady accumulation, moving from 39,825 miles in June 2023 to 57,253 miles in June 2024, and reaching nearly 70,000 miles by October 2025. This regularity suggests consistent use rather than long periods of standing, which explains the progressive wear observed on consumable items and suspension components noted throughout the record. A buyer must inspect the rear suspension in person to ensure both shock absorbers were replaced, rather than just the leaking side. The record shows a long history of damping issues dating back to 2023, where both units were already flagged for a reduced damping effect. Additionally, the 2024 test highlighted all four tyres worn to the legal limit with multiple sidewall cuts on the nearside front. While the latest test passed despite a minor tyre cut, the buyer should verify the remaining tread depth across all tyres and check for any further corrosion on the nearside rear brake disc which was already noted as pitted in 2023.
