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 with an improving maintenance trend over the last three years. The most recent inspection conducted in November 2025 at 63,402 miles resulted in a pass with no defects, indicating that the car currently meets all statutory safety standards. This follows a clean result in 2024, suggesting that any mechanical issues identified in previous years have been addressed or have not progressed into critical failures. The mileage pattern is remarkably consistent for an eight-year-old luxury saloon, averaging approximately 8,000 miles per year. Data shows a steady progression from 25,378 miles in late 2021 to 63,402 miles in 2025, with annual intervals of roughly 9,000 miles. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has been driven consistently, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and preventing the type of corrosion often seen in long-term stationary vehicles. Specific attention should be paid to the front braking system based on the November 2023 test at 45,202 miles, where the tester flagged fluctuating brakes. While the vehicle passed subsequent tests, this condition often indicates warped brake discs or sticking calipers. A buyer should verify the pedal remains firm during a test drive and inspect for uneven wear on the front rotors. Additionally, the failure in November 2022 for low tyre tread depth highlights a past lapse in basic consumable maintenance, so a thorough check of the current tyre age and remaining depth is necessary to ensure they are not nearing the end of their life.
