Mechanical Assessment

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

This vehicle is in an excellent state of roadworthiness with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT test on 24 June 2025 at 25,357 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This follows a similarly flawless result from the previous year, indicating a vehicle that has been kept to a high mechanical standard. The mileage is notably low for a five year old car, averaging roughly 5,071 miles per year. Between 20 June 2024 and 24 June 2025, the vehicle covered 9,331 miles. This suggests a shift from very light use in its early years to a more consistent driving pattern recently. The absence of any recorded faults over these two tests suggests the low mileage has not led to degradation from prolonged standing. A physical inspection should focus on consumables that degrade regardless of mileage. The buyer should check the condition of the tyre rubber for age-related cracking and verify the brake disc surfaces for light corrosion, which can occur on low-mileage vehicles. While the MOT history shows no issues with suspension bushes or brake binding, a manual check of the fluid levels and tyre tread depth is advised to ensure current roadworthiness. The lack of any advisories regarding structural integrity or exhaust emissions over the recorded period suggests a well-preserved chassis. There are no recurring mechanical trends to flag, making this a low-risk profile from a technical standpoint.
