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 currently maintains a roadworthy status, showing a stable maintenance trend following a minor setback. The most recent test conducted in September 2025 at 82,897 miles resulted in no defects recorded, indicating that the owner has addressed previous issues effectively. The clean sheets across the last two inspections suggest that the vehicle is currently being maintained to a high standard without immediate mechanical concerns or structural failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with typical usage for a premium executive car, averaging approximately 10,000 miles per year. Between October 2022 and October 2023, the vehicle covered 20,431 miles, which represents a significant spike in usage compared to the subsequent annual interval of roughly 10,300 miles recorded between the 2023 and 2024 tests. This regular interval suggests the car is driven consistently, which is generally beneficial for maintaining seals and mechanical components, preventing the corrosion often associated with long periods of standing. The only recorded failure in October 2023 at 66,641 miles was due to a nearside front tyre bulge, a safety-related consumable failure rather than a sign of mechanical neglect. Since that rectification, the record shows no recurring advisories regarding suspension bushes, brake calipers, or exhaust emissions. A buyer should still physically inspect the suspension arms and coil bushings for rubber wear, as these are common points of fatigue on this chassis at this mileage, and verify the brake discs for signs of thinning or uneven wear that might not surface during a standard MOT test.
