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 currently holds a 2026-06-18 MOT record, which indicates that the most recent inspection was performed approximately one year prior, placing the vehicle firmly within the current testing window. The maintenance history shows a stable trend of passing tests with only minor consumable wear, such as oil misting on shock absorbers and a near-side rear inner oil leak, rather than catastrophic failures or excessive wear. This suggests that basic upkeep practices have been maintained consistently over the past two years. The mileage accumulation is notable for the vehicle's age, with approximately 7,712 miles recorded over 16 years. While this is typical for a 2010 model, the mileage rate is steady without significant gaps or rapid spikes that would suggest a sudden drop-off in usage or a major repair event. The data is clean, with no excessive wear on the drivetrain or suspension components detected at the time of the 2026 test, reinforcing the conclusion that the vehicle has maintained its mechanical integrity through regular servicing. Given the consistent passing of MOTs and the absence of structural defects or corrosion issues, the vehicle is currently roadworthy for a standard buyer. However, the buyer should inspect the vehicle in person to verify the condition of the front brake pipes and the near-side brake pipe, as these components were flagged as corroded or covered in grease in the 2024-05-17 test. Additionally, the buyer must confirm that the oil seal in the near-side rear inner oil pan is intact, as this was the only other defect recorded at the 2026-05-15 test.
