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, though the maintenance trend indicates a recurring pattern of suspension and tyre-related issues. While the most recent test in October 2025 was a pass, it highlighted advisories for front anti-roll bar linkage play and front tyres approaching the legal limit. This suggests that while the car is safe for the road, components are reaching the end of their service life and require consistent attention to prevent future failures. The mileage pattern is consistent with a low-to-moderate usage, averaging approximately 6,400 miles per year. There is a notable gap in usage between November 2022 and November 2023, where only 5,931 miles were covered, followed by a more active period of nearly 9,000 miles between late 2023 and late 2025. This low annual mileage suggests the drivetrain has not been heavily stressed, but intermittent use can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components and seals as seen in the history. A prospective buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of the suspension, specifically focusing on the anti-roll bar linkages which have been flagged for play in both 2023 and 2025. The history also shows a past fractured coil spring and worn rear tackle bushes, so the rear assembly should be checked for signs of sagging or excessive movement. Additionally, the buyer should verify the wheel alignment, as multiple advisories regarding uneven edge wear on the front tyres indicate that the geometry may not be perfectly set.
