Mechanical Assessment

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

The most recent MOT in 2025 revealed a worn, pitted, or scored front brake disc, but it was not seriously weakened. A recurring mechanical pattern is evident in the vehicle's history, with several notable issues emerging over the years. In 2006, at 4 years old, the vehicle failed its MOT due to several defects, including missing wheel fixings and a wheel bearing with excessive play. At 9 years old, in 2011, the vehicle failed again, with defects including a brake lever with insufficient reserve travel and a parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value. In 2014, at 12 years old, the vehicle passed its MOT but had several noted items, including brake wear and a defective steering and front suspension. However, in 2022, at 20 years old, the vehicle failed its MOT due to a range of issues, including a brake lever with insufficient reserve travel, missing wheel fixings, and a wheel bearing with excessive play. The trend in the vehicle's mechanical condition is stable, with recurring issues emerging at regular intervals. However, the vehicle has also had several clean passes, indicating that it may be due to periods of under-use or lighter use. The mileage of 120,956 miles, accumulated over 24 years, suggests that the vehicle may have been subject to periods of under-use or long periods of standing. The annual mileage of approximately 5,040 miles is low for its age, which could indicate lighter use or under-use.
