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 presents a stable history of roadworthiness, evidenced by five consecutive MOT passes. The most recent inspection conducted in February 2026 at 98,182 miles resulted in no recorded defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and emission standards. This suggests a consistent level of maintenance, as the vehicle has progressed without significant mechanical failures or structural regressions over the last four years of recorded testing. The mileage pattern is consistent with a well-used but age grand tourer, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. Between February 2022 (80,012 miles) and January 2025 (94,208 miles), the car covered 14,196 miles, showing a steady and predictable usage rate. The jump of 3,974 miles between the January 2025 and February 2026 tests confirms that the vehicle remains in regular use, which helps prevent the seal degradation and component seizing often associated with long periods of inactivity. The recurring advisories for a nearside rear tyre cut in both 2022 and 2024 indicate minor impact damage rather than a systemic failure in tyre maintenance. Since the MOT record is clean of suspension, brake, or structural corrosion issues, a buyer should focus their physical inspection on high-wear items that the MOT does not fully test. At this mileage, the condition of the rubber suspension bushings, the state of the brake discs for thinning or pitting, and the presence of any oil or coolant leaks from the engine bay remain the priorities for an on-site evaluation.
