2011 Kawasaki 1.0L Petrol · SD11 XHA

The vehicle currently holds a roadworthiness rating of 100% on 2026-06-18, indicating that the MOT test was conducted in the past. The most recent inspection on 2025-08-29 was passed at 25,124 miles with no recorded defects, suggesting the vehicle is currently in good mechanical condition. However, the MOT history reveals a significant gap in the testing schedule, with the most recent test occurring in 2025, which is only 17 months prior to the current date. This creates a gap between the last official check and the present, meaning the vehicle's mechanical status is not fully updated by the latest official record, potentially masking accumulated wear that may have occurred since the 2025 test. The mileage pattern indicates that while the vehicle is relatively young at 15 years old, it has accumulated a substantial number of miles in a short period. The data shows a steady rise in mileage from 2019 to 2025, with a notable gap between the 2024 and 2023 tests where the mileage increased by 164 miles. This rapid accumulation suggests that the vehicle has been driven or parked at a high speed for a significant duration, which could indicate that the mechanical integrity of the drivetrain, suspension, and brakes has deteriorated over time. The low mileage per year (approx. 1,675 miles) is unusually low for a 2011 model, typically indicating either very light usage or a long-standing absence of the vehicle, which complicates the assessment of actual wear. Given the specific faults recorded in the MOT history, particularly the rear brake pad close to minimum limit on 2024-08-27, the buyer must inspect the vehicle for binding calipers and brake discs. The 2020-09-17 test flagged a worn front tyre, which is a critical structural risk that requires immediate replacement. The vehicle's history suggests that basic upkeep, such as tyre rotation and alignment, may have been skipped due to the gap in MOTs, leading to the accumulation of wear on critical components. While the rear brake system shows no clear signs of corrosion, the proximity to the minimum limit on the 2024 test warrants a thorough check of the brake fluid and pads, and a visual inspection of the suspension bushings for excessive play. The overall verdict is that the vehicle is roadworthy but requires immediate attention to the worn front tyre and a full inspection of the rear brake system to prevent potential failure.
