2022 Cupra Born V2 EV Electricity · KT22 HGC

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, evidenced by a clean MOT pass on 17 June 2026 at 49,701 miles. This recent result indicates an improving maintenance trend compared to the previous year, where multiple advisories regarding tyres were noted. The absence of any defects in the latest test suggests that the current owner has addressed the wear and tear issues identified during the prior inspection. The car shows a high usage profile for its four-year age, averaging approximately 12,425 miles per annum. Between the 17 July 2025 test at 40,173 miles and the June 2026 test, the vehicle covered 9,528 miles in just under eleven months. This rapid accumulation suggests consistent use, likely long-distance motorway driving, which places higher-than-average stress on consumable deata components, suspension bushings, and braking systems compared to lower-mileage city vehicles. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the tyres and suspension geometry. The July 2025 test flagged the nearside front, offside front, and offside rear tyres as being close to the legal limit and worn on the edges. This pattern often indicates an alignment issue or premature shock absorber wear. You need to verify the current tyre set for uneven wear to ensure the previous issue was properly rectified rather than just masked with new budget rubber. Given the high mileage, an inspection of the brake discs and calipers for thinning or uneven pitting is necessary. While electric vehicles utilize regenerative braking, the mechanical brakes can still suffer from corrosion if the vehicle is not used frequently. Check the control arm bushings and steering links for signs of tearing, as the high annual mileage accelerates the degradation of these rubber components within the suspension assembly.
