The vehicle remains roadworthy but the maintenance history indicates a stable trend of minor mechanical neglect rather than proactive care. The most recent test in November 2025 at 17,817 miles showed the car passing despite recurring issues with the braking system and exterior components. While the vehicle has passed its legal obligations, the persistence of pitted and scored rear brake discs across multiple tests suggests the previous owner only addresses faults once they reach an MOT advisory level threshold. The mileage profile is notably low for a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,563 miles per year. Between the December 2024 test at 15,211 miles and the November 2025 test, the car covered only 2,606 miles. This low rate of use often leads to the degradation of rubber-based components due to age, which explains the cracking and perishing of the nearside front tyre flagged in the latest inspection, alongside the smearing wipers noted in the previous year. A buyer should specifically inspect the rear brake assembly, as the repeated pitting and scoring noted in both 2024 and 2025 indicate that the discs are suffering from corrosion, likely due to infrequent use or environmental exposure. The low coolant level reported in December 2024 warrants a pressure test to ensure there are no slow leaks in the cooling system over time. Additionally, the condition of all tyres and the registration plate should be verified, as the low mileage has not prevented age-related material failure of these consumables.
