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 presents a stable roadworthiness profile characterized by a consistent history of clean passes. The most recent MOT test conducted in June 2025 at 25,216 miles returned no defects or advisories, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. While a failure was recorded in June 2024 at 24,195 miles, the immediate pass on the same day suggests the owner was proactive in rectifying the identified fault without delay. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 13-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,940 miles per year. Between June 2022 at 20,572 miles and June 2025 at 25,216 miles, the car covered only 4,694 miles over three years. This low usage suggests the mechanical wear on the drivetrain and engine components is likely minimal compared to average-run city cars. However, long periods of standing can sometimes lead to issues such as seized brake calipers or the degradation of rubber components. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by low-mileage storage. Although the MOT record shows no structural advisories, the tester should check for surface corrosion on the underside and exhaust system, which can occur even on rarely driven cars. Given the age of the vehicle, inspect the tyres for sidewall rot and perished cracks, as rubber often ages out before the tread wears down. Verify the brake discs are free of heavy pitting and ensure the handbrake is not binding due to lack of use.
