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 remains in a roadworthy condition, demonstrating a stable maintenance trend over the last four years. The most recent test on May 27, 2026 at 77,713 miles passed with only a minor advisory regarding slight play in the nearside rear upper arm outer bush. This indicates the onset of wear in suspension components rather than a systemic mechanical failure, as the previous three annual tests returned with no recorded defects. The mileage accumulation is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 9,700 miles per year. Between July 2022 at 53,779 miles and June 2024 at 63,897 miles, the car covered 10,118 miles, showing a steady usage pattern. The recent interval of 5,457 miles between the June 2025 and May 2026 tests suggests the vehicle is used regularly, which typically reduces the risk of component degradation or corrosion associated with long periods of inactivity. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the nearside rear suspension to assess the extent of the play in the outer bush. While a single advisory is common on a vehicle of this age and mileage, rubber bushing fatigue can lead to uneven tyre wear or handling instability if ignored. Given the clean history regarding structural integrity and braking systems, the vehicle appears to have been well-maintained, but a thorough check of all suspension control arms and bushings is advisable to ensure no further degradation is developing.
