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 roadworthiness profile, having passed its latest MOT on 3 July 2025 with 60,762 miles. This result followed a technical failure on 10 June 2025 at just one mile prior, which recorded no actual defects and suggests an administrative error or a false trigger rather than a mechanical fault. The absence of advisories or failures across the last four tests indicates that the vehicle has maintained a high standard of mechanical compliance throughout recent years. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a 17-year-old sports car, averaging approximately 3,574 miles per annum. The data shows consistent but infrequent usage, moving from 54,121 miles in January 2022 to 60,762 miles by July 2025. The significant gap between the April 2024 and June 2025 tests suggests the car may sit stationary for extended periods. While this low mileage reduces wear on the engine and drivetrain, it often leads to age-related degradation of rubber-based components that do not manifest through mileage. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components sensitive to low-mileage storage, such as perished suspension bushes, split seals, and aging tyre sidewalls. Given the long intervals between use, brake discs should be checked for surface corrosion or seized calipers which frequently occur when a vehicle is stationary. Although the MOT record shows no structural rust, a thorough check of the chassis and fluid levels is necessary to ensure that the low-usage history has not masked underlying fluid leaks or hydraulic breakdown.
