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 and shows a stable maintenance trend following a period of documented neglect. The most recent test conducted in August 2025 at 32,751 miles resulted in zero defects, indicating that the previous issues regarding tyre condition were addressed. This represents a significant improvement over the October 2023 failure, where the vehicle was deemed unroadworthy due to multiple safety-related faults. The mileage profile is low for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 5,458 miles per annum. The data shows a consistent usage pattern between October 2023 and October 2024, where the car covered 8,698 miles. However, the interval between the October 2024 and August 2025 tests shows only 3,954 miles driven. While low mileage generally reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine components, long intervals can sometimes mask the degradation of rubber seals and brake components associated with vehicle sitting. A buyer must perform a close inspection of the suspension geometry due to the recurring uneven wear noted in October 2024. Both rear tyres were flagged as worn on the inside edges and close to the legal limit, which strongly suggests an alignment issue or worn control arm bushes. The buyer should also verify the current tyres for consistent wear to avoid the same issues that caused the 2023 failure. Given the low mileage, the brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or pitting, which often occurs on vehicles that are not used frequently.
