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

The vehicle currently has a roadworthiness status of Pass, and the MOT trend is stable over the period, with no indication of a worsening pattern. The most recent test on 2026-06-18 at 178,235 miles was passed, confirming that the condition of the car has remained consistent since the last inspection. The mileage pattern shows a significant gap between the most recent entry and the vehicle's age, with a 17-year interval separating the 2022-08-27 test at 178,235 miles from the 2018-08-24 test at 166,092 miles. This suggests that while the total mileage has not degraded drastically, the specific accumulation of wear on components such as suspension bushings and coil springs has not been mitigated through regular upkeep. A buyer should inspect the vehicle for corrosion on the inner sills and the condition of the rear suspension components, as these are the areas flagged in the most recent test. While the lack of defects in the earlier years indicates that basic maintenance has been maintained, the current test confirms that the system is still structurally sound and that no serious mechanical risks have emerged from the vehicle's history.
