2016 Qingqi QM 0.1L Petrol · LG16 FXZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT in January 2026 at 7,651 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, though the record indicates recurring minor issues that have persisted over time. While the vehicle passed the latest test, the presence of a noisy exhaust advisory in the most recent inspection suggests a persistent mechanical condition or component fatigue that has not been fully rectified despite previous passes. The mileage profile is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 765 miles per year. Data shows significant gaps in use between 2021 and 2023, where the vehicle covered only 742 miles over two years. This pattern of low usage suggests minimal wear on the drivetrain and suspension components, but long periods of standing often lead to degradation of rubber seals, perished hoses, and internal corrosion within brake fluid and fuel lines. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the exhaust system, given that the tester flagged a noisy exhaust in both 2020 and 2026. Although the brakes remained functional, the history of a bent lever in 2020 and a bent pedal in 2021 indicates physical impact or stress to the control linkages. Verify the integrity of the master cylinder and hydraulic lines for signs of leaking or seizing. Given the low mileage, check the tyres for flat spotting or age-related cracking, which are common in vehicles that remain stationary for extended periods.
