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 based on the latest available MOT data. The most recent test conducted in November 2025 at 84,391 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that all primary mechanical and safety systems were functioning within legal parameters. This follows a period of clean passes in 2023 and 2022, suggesting that the vehicle has maintained a consistent standard of operational integrity. The mileage accumulation is consistent with an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per annum. Between September 2022 and September 2023, the car covered 13,683 miles, representing a slightly higher than average usage period, while the subsequent 26,826 miles recorded between the 2023 and 2025 tests show a steady, regular driving pattern. This regular use is generally beneficial for components as it prevents the ingress and corrosion often associated with long periods of standing. The single failure recorded on September 2, 2022 at 43,832 miles, followed by a pass the very next day, indicates a minor issue that was rectified immediately. Since no advisories have been noted across the subsequent three tests, there is no documented evidence of recurring structural corrosion, suspension degradation, or persistent brake issues. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the suspension bushes and brake pad thickness, as the MOT tests do not measure the rate of wear on these consumable items between intervals.
