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

The 2026‑03‑30 MOT at 37,088 miles passed with no defects, confirming the vehicle remains roadworthy and the maintenance record is stable. The mileage trajectory shows a modest annual average of roughly 3,700 miles, well below the typical wear rate for a 2016 model, and the intervals between tests are short, with only a 232‑mile increase between the 2024‑04‑08 and 2024‑04‑12 examinations, indicating consistent, light usage. A buyer should therefore examine the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, inspect the brake discs and calipers for binding or corrosion, and verify the structural integrity of the chassis and wheel arches for rust, while also checking tyre tread depth and wiper blade condition. Overall, the documented history reflects diligent upkeep and low operational stress, but a thorough physical inspection remains essential to confirm the absence of hidden corrosion or component fatigue before purchase.
