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

The vehicle's MOT history shows a stable trend in recent years, with the most recent test on 30 January 2024 resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pass in January 2023, which succeeded a failure on 19 January 2023. While the 2023 failure does not specify the nature of the defect in the provided record, the subsequent two years of clean passes suggest that any identified issues were addressed to meet minimum standards. The recorded mileage of 148,020 miles for a 2012 model represents an average annual usage of approximately 10,573 miles. This pattern is consistent with typical UK driving habits for a vehicle of this age. The MOT records provided do not show specific mileage increments for each individual test, making it difficult to identify rapid accumulation or long periods of inactivity between the 2022 and 2024 inspections. Because the recent MOT history lacks specific advisories regarding consumables or structural components, a physical inspection is necessary to assess the current state of wear. A buyer should focus on the suspension system, specifically checking for perished bushes or leaking dampers, and inspect the brake discs and pads for uneven wear. Given the vehicle's age and mileage, checking for corrosion on the underside and exhaust system is also advisable, as these elements often present issues that may not be captured in a clean MOT pass if they have not yet reached the threshold for failure. buying_score: 75 risk_level: Low.
