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

The vehicle remains roadworthy, having passed the most recent MOT on 2 June 2025 at 42,525 miles. No serious defects have recurred; the only recorded advisory was an insufficient washer‑fluid level in May 2023, and earlier brake‑fluctuation notes have not reappeared, indicating a stable maintenance trend. Mileage averages roughly 4,250 miles per year, well below typical usage for a 2016 model. The record shows steady increments – 31,238 miles in May 2022, 35,075 miles in May 2023, 38,198 miles in June 2024 and 42,525 miles in June 2025 – with no abrupt spikes or prolonged gaps, suggesting consistent, low‑intensity operation. A prospective buyer should remove the engine and under‑body covers to verify that no hidden corrosion or wear exists beneath them. Inspect the front service brakes for any residual fluctuation, and confirm that the brake discs and pads are within thickness limits. Check tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, especially on the nearside front where wear approached the legal limit in 2019. Ensure the windscreen washer system delivers adequate fluid, and verify that the fitted child seat does not impede the adult belt operation. A visual survey for rust around the undertrays will complete a thorough assessment.
