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

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthy status, having passed its most recent MOT on 23 June 2025 at 109,572 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the history reveals a pattern of immediate failures followed by successful passes. In both 2024 and 2025, the car failed the test just days before a successful result, suggesting that the owner addresses specific compliance issues only when prompted by an official failure rather than performing preventative mechanical maintenance. The mileage profile is consistent with a thirteen-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 8,400 miles per year. The data shows steady usage, moving from 94,898 miles in June 2023 to 101,558 miles in June 2024, and then another 8,014 miles by the 2025 test. This regular accumulation suggests the car is used consistently rather than being left stationary for long periods, which generally helps keep rubber components and seals from drying out and brake components from seizing. While the most recent test recorded no defects, the recurring failures on the test day indicate that the vehicle operates on the margin of legal compliance. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension bushes and brake components, as these are common culprits for last-minute MOT failures on this model. Given the age and mileage, pay close attention to structural corrosion on the sills and check the condition of the exhaust system to ensure the lack of recorded advisories is not simply masking underlying degradation.
