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

The 2025‑12‑19 MOT at 153,804 miles recorded a pass with no defects, indicating that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA roadworthiness standards. Since the 2020 failures the car has passed every subsequent test, showing a stable maintenance record and no recurring serious faults. The mileage has risen from 65,653 miles in 2016 to 153,804 miles in 2025, averaging about 10,254 miles per year, which aligns with the typical usage for a 2011 model. The only notable irregularity is the dual test on 2020‑09‑23 and the repeated test on 2019‑11‑30, but the overall progression is steady with no long periods of inactivity. A buyer should therefore examine the front and rear suspension components for play in the ball joints and condition of the coil springs, inspect the brake discs and pads for scoring, pitting or excessive wear, verify tyre tread depth and edge wear, check the parking brake operation, and look for any signs of oil leakage or structural rust on undertrays and suspension arms.
