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 presents a stable maintenance profile following a period of minor mechanical issues. The most recent test on 17 October 2025 at 30,918 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a more problematic 19 November 2024 inspection where the tester flagged worn offside rear suspension arm bushes and pitted rear brake discs. The absence of advisories in the latest test suggests that the previous mechanical concerns were addressed effectively. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally low for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 3,092 miles per year. The data shows consistent, incremental growth from 8,578 miles in November 2019 to the current 30,918 miles. While low usage often implies less mechanical strain, the record shows evidence of age-related degradation typical of vehicles that sit idle for extended periods. For instance, the 09 December 2021 and 01 December 2020 tests both identified perishing rear tyres, a common symptom of rubber oxidation in low-use vehicles. A prospective buyer should focus on the condition of the braking system and suspension components. Although the 2024 advisories regarding pitted brake discs and worn suspension bushes were cleared by the 2025 pass, these components should be physically inspected for signs of uneven wear or premature deterioration. The history of damaged track rod end dust covers in December 2023 and wiper blade failures in late 2024 indicates that while major structural integrity remains intact, the vehicle requires regular attention to consumable rubber and plastic parts that degrade with time rather than distance.
