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

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, having passed its most recent MOT test on 10 July 2025 at 80,250 miles. The maintenance trend appears stable, although the record shows a failure on that same day due to both front tyres being below the legal tread depth limit. The fact that these defects were rectified immediately to secure a pass suggests that the owner is responsive to safety-critical requirements when identified by the tester. At approximately 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 80,250 miles averages to roughly 6,173 miles per year. This is consistent with typical usage for a luxury hybrid of this age, suggesting it has not been overstretched. The data shows a consistent usage pattern, with approximately 8,000 miles covered between July 2024 and July 2025, and roughly 5,100 miles in the preceding year. This regularity indicates a predictable wear profile rather than erratic or heavy use. A buyer should conduct a close physical inspection of the tyre condition, as the history shows a recurring issue with front rubber. In July 2023, both front tyres were noted as being close to the legal limit and worn on the edges, and by July 2025 they had failed for being below 1.6mm. This pattern indicates potential alignment issues or suspension geometry wear that is causing uneven rubbing on the front tyres. Furthermore, the July 2023 test flagged the front enough discs as worn at 67,076 miles. While not considered excessive at that time, a prospective purchaser should verify the current thickness of the discs and the pads to ensure they are not nearing replacement. Given the low annual mileage, the hybrid battery and rubber suspension bushes should also be checked for signs of age or cracking, as these are common areas of concern on vehicles that are driven infrequently.
