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 in a roadworthy state with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent test on 3 April 2025 at 101,832 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a consistent pattern of passing subsequent tests shortly after initial failures, suggesting the owner addresses required repairs promptly to maintain compliance. The mileage is notably low for a 2009 model, averaging roughly 5,990 miles per year. The distance covered between the 5 April 2023 test at 89,638 miles and the 20 April 2024 test at 95,415 miles shows a steady usage pattern of approximately 5,777 miles over a year. There are no erratic jumps or significant gaps in the record that would suggest periods of prolonged standing or sudden heavy use. The MOT history is unusually clean for a vehicle of this age. No recurring mechanical failures regarding suspension bushes, coil springs, or brake discs appear in the data. The failures on 29 March 2023 and 3 April 2024 were resolved within days, though the record does not specify the exact nature of those defects. This lack of detailed advisory notes makes it difficult to track the gradual wear of consumables. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on areas the MOT tester may have overlooked or that do not trigger an automatic failure. Given the vehicle's age, check for underside corrosion and the condition of the rubber seals. Inspect the brake pads and tyre tread depths manually, as the absence of advisories in the 2024 and 2025 tests does not guarantee these components are not nearing the end of their service life.
