2016 Ssangyong Tivoli 1.6L Petrol · KT16 AEN

The vehicle presents a generally roadworthy profile with a stable maintenance trend despite intermittent testing failures. The most recent inspection on 11 December 2025 at 60,503 miles resulted in a pass with no recorded defects, following an initial failure on the same day. This pattern suggests the previous owner is proactive in rectifying identified faults immediately to meet compliance standards, ensuring the vehicle remains in a legal driving condition as of the current date. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,050 miles per annum. Between November 2023 at 43,604 miles and December 2024 at 51,006 miles, the car covered 7,400 miles, followed by another 9,497 miles in the year leading up to the 2025 test. This relatively low annual usage typically places less strain on the drivetrain and engine components, though long periods of standing can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based suspension components or fluid oxidation. While the record shows no persistent advisories, the recurring failures in 2023 and 2025 indicate that specific components require attention prior to each test. A buyer should physically inspect the condition of the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or glazing, as these are common sources of MOT-related failures. Given the age and low mileage, checking for structural corrosion on the chassis and inspecting suspension bushes for cracking is essential, as low-use vehicles can suffer from environmental degradation despite low mechanical wear.
