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 focused on minor consumable issues. The most recent inspection conducted on 6 October 2025 at 31,225 miles resulted in a pass with a single advisory regarding a cut on the offside front outer tyre. This indicates that the mechanical and structural components met the required safety standards, although the vehicle remains susceptible to minor physical damage to the rubber. The mileage pattern is consistent with a five-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,245 miles per year. Between the 31 October 2024 test at 21,728 miles and the October 2025 test, the car covered 9,497 miles. This steady accumulation suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity, which is generally beneficial for electric vehicle components to prevent brake caliper seizing or flat-spotting of the-related systems. A buyer should perform a close physical inspection of the tyre set to address recurring faults. The 2024 test flagged multiple issues including cracking and perishing on the offside front and nearside rear tyres, suggesting the vehicle may have sat for extended periods or was exposed to harsh environmental conditions. While the 2025 report shows a reduction in these advisories, the recurring nature of sidewall damage indicates that the rubber may be nearing the end of its structural life regardless of tread depth. Focus the inspection on checking for further perishing or deep cuts to ensure no immediate immediate replacement is required upon purchase.
