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

The May 12 2026 MOT at 38,051 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the Vantage meets current roadworthiness standards. No recurring failures appear in the recent record, suggesting a stable maintenance pattern despite earlier corrosion notices. The vehicle’s 38,051 miles equate to roughly 3,800 miles per year for a 2016 model, indicating light usage or extended periods of inactivity. Mileage rose from 24,544 miles in December 2023 to 38,051 miles in May 2026, a gain of 13,507 miles over six months, while earlier intervals showed slower growth, such as the increase from 29,826 miles in December 2024 to 36,017 miles in December 2025. A buyer should examine the rear and near‑side brake pipes for signs of corrosion and grease contamination, check the condition of the brake discs and calipers for binding or uneven wear, and inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for deterioration. The previous Lambda reading and tyre perishing also merit close scrutiny, as does any evidence of structural rust on the chassis or wheel arches.
