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

The 2025‑03‑13 MOT at 146,603 miles recorded a pass with no defects, confirming that the vehicle currently meets the DVSA standard and that the maintenance trend has remained stable since the preceding 2024 test. Earlier failures in 2022 were addressed, and subsequent tests have shown consistent results with no recurring defects. Over the 18‑year lifespan the mileage has risen from 54,213 miles in July 2012 to 146,603 miles by March 2025, averaging about 8,145 miles per year, which aligns with typical usage for a 2008 model and shows no evidence of long standing periods or abrupt mileage spikes. The yearly increments are modest, with only a small gap between 2014 and 2015 where mileage increased by roughly 5,000 miles, but the overall pattern remains steady. A buyer should therefore examine tyre tread depth and wear patterns, especially the near‑side rear tyre noted in 2014 and 2018, verify that the position lamps are functioning correctly, inspect the condition of suspension bushes and coil springs behind the fitted under‑trays, confirm that the engine management light is off and that the washer jets deliver adequate spray, and look for any signs of corrosion or structural damage that may be concealed by the under‑trays or engine covers.
