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 road‑worthy; the latest MOT on 30 October 2025 at 42,449 miles recorded a Pass with no defects. After a single failure in October 2024 for an off‑side brake cable and insufficient parking‑brake efficiency, the subsequent test in November 2024 and the most recent test both passed, indicating that the identified issues were remedied and the maintenance trend is improving. Mileage averages roughly 4,200 miles per year, well below the typical annual run‑off for a 2016 model. The record shows a steady increase from 22,514 miles in March 2020 to 42,449 miles in October 2025, with no abrupt spikes or unexplained gaps. This low, consistent mileage suggests limited use and minimal cumulative wear on major components. A prospective buyer should verify the condition of the braking system, focusing on the off‑side cable, parking‑brake operation, and front pad thickness, as these items have previously required attention. Inspect the tyres for any lingering damage from the 2023 nail incident and assess tread depth across the set. Although the MOT history reports no suspension or structural advisories, a visual check for corrosion on suspension bushes, coil springs, and any signs of chassis rust remains prudent. Overall, the MOT data portrays a vehicle that has been kept within modest mileage limits and whose recent corrective work has restored compliance. A targeted in‑person examination of the brakes and tyres will confirm that the earlier faults have been fully resolved and that no hidden wear threatens the car’s continued reliability.
