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

The 2025‑04‑11 MOT at 84,161 miles recorded a pass, confirming that the vehicle currently satisfies DVSA roadworthiness criteria; the maintenance trend has shifted from the 2023 failure, where anti‑roll bar ball joint dust covers and brake hoses were noted, to a successful outcome after those items were addressed, indicating a move toward stability rather than ongoing decline. The mileage trajectory shows a gradual rise from 36,429 miles in 2014 to 84,161 miles today, averaging roughly 4,400 miles per year, yet the most recent six‑month period added 16,000 miles, suggesting a period of heightened use; earlier intervals were comparatively modest, with the lowest recorded mileage at 36,429 in 2014 and a steady climb to the present, reflecting a mix of light usage and recent higher mileage. A buyer should focus on the recurring anti‑roll bar ball joint dust cover splits and brake hose ferrule corrosion, which point to potential suspension wear and hydraulic leakage; the repeated pitting and wear of brake discs and the persistent corrosion on rear brake pipes, front strut mounts and shock absorber casings demand inspection of brake pad thickness, disc condition, hose integrity and structural rust on suspension components, while the latest pass suggests that recent repairs have stabilized the vehicle.
