Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT from February 2026 passed, but it flagged several advisory items including worn front tyres and a leaking nearside rear shock absorber. These indicate that basic maintenance is currently slipping. There is a clear pattern of suspension and chassis wear. The vehicle failed in February 2025 due to excessively worn front suspension arm bushes and a parking brake adjustment issue. While these were rectified for the pass, the subsequent appearance of a leaking shock absorber suggests the vehicle's condition is trending downward. The mileage of 124,796 miles is typical for a 12-year-old car. This level of use means you should expect standard wear on drivetrain components and consumables, and the recent suspension issues are consistent with this mileage. A buyer should first inspect the condition of the front tyres and check the rear shock absorbers for leaks. You should also test the parking brake and listen for any knocks or rattles from the front suspension to ensure the previous repairs are still holding up.
