Mechanical Assessment

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

The overall roadworthiness status is stable, with the most recent test on 19 February 2026 passing with no recorded defects. The maintenance trend shows a consistent pattern of passing and failing on the same date each year, with the 2026 test at 118,565 miles being the latest and cleanest. The mileage pattern reflects a typical 18-year-old vehicle at roughly 6,587 miles per year. There is no notable gap or rapid accumulation; the readings are evenly spaced across the year. The two failed tests in February 2026 and February 2025 both recorded 118,518 and 112,022 miles respectively, with no defects noted. A buyer should inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, as the record shows two separate failures without defects. The brake discs and calipers should be examined for binding or excessive wear, given the recurring failures. Structural rust should be checked, especially around the wheel arches and underbody, as the vehicle has been in use for over a decade.
