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. The most recent MOT on 15 December 2025 at 70,906 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean bill of health follows a pattern of passing without advisories for several years, suggesting the car has been kept in a consistent state of repair. The mileage is low for a 13 year old vehicle, averaging roughly 5,454 miles per year. There was a notable increase in usage between 14 December 2023 at 48,849 miles and 4 December 2024 at 60,098 miles, where the car covered over 11,000 miles in a single year. Since then, the mileage has slowed significantly, adding only 10,808 miles over the following twelve months leading up to the December 2025 test. The MOT record is unusually clean, showing no recorded defects or advisories across multiple tests. While this suggests a well-maintained vehicle, the absence of any flagged wear on consumables like brake discs, tyres, or suspension bushes is atypical for a car of this age. A buyer should manually inspect the underbody for corrosion and check the date codes on the tyres to ensure they have not perished due to the low annual mileage. The double-fail entries on 12 December 2025 and 4 December 2024 are peculiar as no specific defects are listed in the record. These likely represent administrative errors or immediate re-tests for minor issues that were not formally detailed. Given the lack of data on wear items, a physical check of the fluid levels and a test drive to assess for any suspension knocks or brake pulsations is recommended.
