2021 Vmoto CPA Electric · LE21 ACU

The vehicle achieved a PASS on its most recent MOT on 5 May 2026 at 42 997 miles, yet the same day a FAIL was recorded for the rear stop lamp (4.3.1 (a)(ii)). The defect is a straightforward electrical fault that can be remedied quickly, and the test otherwise showed no other issues. The preceding MOT on 10 May 2025 at 30 708 miles carried advisories for a front wheel bearing with slight play (5.1.3 (a)(i)) and a rear valve stem with minor damage (5.2.3 (j)). Those items have not re‑appeared as failures, indicating the maintenance trend is stable rather than worsening or improving. Mileage progression aligns with a typical five‑year‑old vehicle, averaging roughly 8 600 miles per year. However, the jump from 30 708 miles to 42 997 miles in just over eleven months represents a higher recent usage rate—about 11 200 miles annually—suggesting the car has been driven more intensively in the last year. The MOT entries are unusually current, occurring only two months before the present date of 7 August 2026, so the vehicle remains within its twelve‑month validity window. A buyer should verify the rear stop lamp operation and ensure the wiring harness is intact. The front wheel bearing should be inspected for excessive play, and the rear valve stem examined for corrosion or deformation. Suspension bushes and coil springs merit a close look for wear, as do the brake discs and pads for uneven wear or scoring. Tyre tread depth and sidewall condition are essential to confirm, as is checking for any signs of rust or corrosion on the chassis and exhaust system. Finally, a thorough under‑body inspection can reveal any structural weaknesses that the MOT advisories did not flag.
