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 maintains a stable roadworthiness status, showing a consistent history of passing tests in recent years. The most recent inspection in August 2025 at 76,447 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car is currently in good mechanical order. This follows a minor failure in May 2024 regarding non-conforming registration plates and incorrect headlamp aim, issues which were promptly rectified to achieve a subsequent pass. The mileage pattern reflects exceptionally low usage for a twenty-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 3,800 miles per annum. Data shows significant periods of inactivity, such as the gap of nearly 9,000 miles between October 2016 and May 2015. While this low mileage reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine, it increases the risk of age-related degradation in rubber components and seals. The steady accumulation of roughly 500 miles per year in recent years suggests the car is used for occasional trips rather than long-distance travel. A physical inspection should focus on the suspension and braking systems given the historical faults flagged. The record noted a broken offside front coil spring in 2014 and corrosion on the offside front brake pipe in 2015. A buyer must verify that these components have been properly replaced and remain free of new structural corrosion or leaks. Additionally, the recurring reports of worn tyres and uneven wear in 2014 and 2015 suggest a need to check for alignment issues or worn suspension bushes that can cause premature tyre despite low mileage.
