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 shows an improving trend in its MOT compliance, moving from a failure in early 2024 to clean passes in the 2025 and 2026 tests. The most recent test on 21 January 2026 recorded no defects, indicating that the issues flagged in previous years have been addressed. The recorded mileage of 76,392 miles over approximately ten years averages to roughly 7,600 miles per year. This represents typical usage for a vehicle of this age. The MOT history shows consistent annual testing from 2021 through 2026, with a single gap between the 2019 and 2021 tests. The record highlights a recurring pattern of tyre wear. In 2021, the tester noted a nearside front tyre worn close to the legal limit. This issue persisted into the 2023 test and escalated in January 2024, where both nearside and offside front tyres were flagged as being worn close to the legal limit or worn on the edges. The 2024 failure also identified an ineffective offside front windscreen wiper and an illuminated TPMS light. A prospective buyer should inspect the current condition of all four tyres and check for uneven tread wear, which can indicate alignment or suspension geometry issues. The TPMS system should be verified to ensure the light is no longer active. While the recent tests are clean, the history of edge-worn tyres suggests checking the suspension bushes and steering components for excessive play. buying_score: 72 risk_level: Low.
