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 is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. It passed its most recent MOT on 11 June 2025 at 36,192 miles with no defects recorded. While the car failed a test on 4 June 2025, the record shows no specific defects for that failure, suggesting a minor administrative or quick-fix issue that was resolved within a week. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2010 model, averaging roughly 2,262 miles per year. Between May 2022 and June 2025, the odometer climbed from 31,860 to 36,192 miles. This indicates the car has covered only 4,332 miles over three years. Such low usage often suggests the vehicle has spent significant periods stationary, which can lead to different mechanical risks than those found on high-mileage examples. A buyer should focus on components that degrade regardless of mileage. Rubber elements such as suspension bushes, tyre sidewalls, and coolant hoses often perish or crack when a car sits idle. The lack of any recorded advisories over the last five years is unusual for a vehicle of this age, meaning a physical inspection of the underbody for corrosion is essential. Check for signs of brake disc corrosion or binding calipers, as low-use vehicles frequently suffer from seized braking components. Verify the battery health and fluid conditions, as infrequent driving cycles can lead to premature battery failure and moisture buildup in the engine oil.
