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, though the maintenance trend indicates a reactive rather than proactive ownership style. The most recent test on 30 June 2025 at 84,484 miles resulted in a pass following an immediate failure on the same day. The tester flagged a front tyre worn to the legal limit and a deteriorated rear registration plate. While the vehicle passed, the presence of these faults suggests that the owner only addresses defects once they result in an official MOT failure. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical family-use requirements, averaging approximately 9,400 miles per year over its nine-year life. Between July 2023 (68,114 miles) and July 2024 (74,944 miles), the vehicle covered roughly 6,800 miles, showing a slight dip in usage before the 9,540 miles recorded between the 2024 and June 2025 tests. This steady accumulation suggests regular use, which generally helps prevent the corrosion of rubber components and brake components associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should inspect the front suspension geometry specifically, as the 2025 failure noted a tyre worn on the edge, which often indicates tracking misalignment or worn control arm bushes rather than simple tread wear. The recurring issue with the windscreen washer system seen in both 2023 and 2025 highlights a lack of basic fluid level checks. Given the age and mileage, a physical inspection of the brake lines and underbody for corrosion is necessary to ensure no structural integrity has degraded beyond what the MOT reports.
