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 shows a stable maintenance trend based on the most recent MOT history, with the March 2026 test passing without any recorded defects. This follows a period of inconsistency in early 2025, where the vehicle failed on 11 March 2025 before passing a subsequent test on 17 March 2025. While the 2025 failure does not list specific defects in this record, the immediate retest success suggests a minor component was addressed. The recorded mileage of 152,694 miles is consistent with the vehicle's age, averaging approximately 7,635 miles per year. The data shows regular annual testing between January 2023 and March 2026. No significant gaps in the MOT history appear, indicating the vehicle has been subject to consistent annual inspections. Because the recent records show no advisories or failures, the MOT history does not highlight specific recurring mechanical issues such as suspension bushes, brake pad wear, or exhaust corrosion. A prospective buyer should still conduct a physical inspection of common wear items on a vehicle of this age and mileage, specifically checking for structural rust on the chassis, the condition of the brake discs and calipers, and the integrity of the suspension components. buying_score: 72 risk_level: Low.
