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 is currently roadworthy following a successful MOT in September 2025 at 73,678 miles. However, the maintenance trend shows a recent decline in consumable oversight. The car failed a test just three days prior to the pass at 73,666 miles due to a critical nearside front inner tyre with exposed ply cords and an offside front inner tyre worn to the legal limit. While these issues were rectified to achieve the pass, the failure indicates a lack of proactive tyre condition monitoring. The mileage accumulation is consistent with a typical private-use pattern, averaging approximately 10,500 miles per year. The record shows steady growth, with a jump of 10,000 miles between the 2022 and 2023 tests, and another 35,700 miles covered between 2023 and 2025. This consistent usage suggests the vehicle has been driven regularly rather than sitting for long periods, which is generally beneficial for battery health and mechanical seals but places standard wear on high-performance components like the suspension and electric drive motors. A buyer must pay close attention to the braking system, as the record highlights a recurring issue with rear brake discs. The tester flagged pitted and scored discs in both September 2023 at 37,910 miles and again in September 2024 at 57,605 miles. Given the performance specification of this model, the scoring suggests aggressive use or potential corrosion from periods of inactivity. A physical inspection should verify the current thickness of the rear pads and check for caliper glazing or binding. Additionally, the recent failure for uneven tyre wear warrants a thorough check of the front suspension bushings and bushings to ensure no underlying alignment faults are causing premature tyre degradation.
