Mechanical Assessment

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

The most recent MOT on 2025-12-11 shows the vehicle failed due to a nearside front tyre worn on edges and an offside rear tyre with a structural lump, indicating potential safety risks. A separate passed MOT on the same date suggests the same mileage (75,354 miles) was assessed for both outcomes, which may reflect conflicting assessments or administrative errors. The failed entry highlights critical tyre issues, including a separation risk in the offside rear tyre, which could lead to sudden failure. Recurring tyre-related defects dominate the history. Since 2023, the nearside rear tyre has repeatedly shown cuts or wear, with one instance in 2023-12-09 failing due to a deep cut reaching the ply. The nearside front tyre has also been flagged for edge wear in 2024 and 2025, suggesting ongoing neglect or improper maintenance. These patterns point to a persistent risk of tyre failure, which could compromise handling and safety. The trend in defects appears to be worsening. Early issues in 2023 involved a tie rod play and minor tyre cuts, but later entries show more severe structural tyre damage (e.g., the 2025 lump in the offside rear tyre). While some issues like the registration plate insecurity in 2024 were minor, the escalation of tyre-related failures indicates a growing risk.
