2018 Chausson Unknown 2.3L Diesel · SN18 AEY

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance history. The most recent test on 10 April 2026 at 19,424 miles resulted in an initial failure due to a non-functional nearside rear stop lamp, which was rectified to secure a pass with no further defects. Prior to this, the vehicle achieved five consecutive clean passes without any advisories, indicating that the mechanical and structural components have remained within tolerance parameters. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for an eight-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 2,428 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental growth, moving from 5,734 miles in May 2021 to 19,424 miles in 2026. This low usage suggests the car has likely been used for short trips or kept stationary, which reduces wear on the drivetrain and engine compared to average annual figures. However, such low mileage can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber components or the absorption of brake fluid if the vehicle is not driven regularly. A buyer should focus their in-person inspection on components affected by low-mileage operation. While the MOT record shows no advisories for structural rust or suspension wear, the lack of use often results in seized brake calipers or pitted brake discs due to inactivity. Inspect the tyres for sidewall cracking or flat spotting, as age often impacts rubber more than mileage in these scenarios. Given the clean history, the vehicle appears to be a well-maintained example, provided the fluids have been changed according to time intervals and rubber seals remain supple.
