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

The vehicle holds a current MOT certificate valid until May 2027, with the most recent test conducted on 28 May 2025 at 42,858 miles resulting in a pass with no defects recorded. This clean record follows a consistent pattern of compliance over the last three annual inspections. While the 6 June 2023 test resulted in a failure, the vehicle successfully passed two days later on 8 June 2023, suggesting the initial failure was likely rectified immediately. The overall maintenance trend remains stable, as the vehicle has cleared its last three consecutive inspections without any flagged advisories. The recorded mileage of 42,858 miles over a six-year period equates to an average of approximately 7,143 miles per annum. This usage pattern is consistent with typical domestic driving habits and does not indicate periods of prolonged inactivity or excessive high-intensity operation. The MOT history is relatively sparse due to the vehicle age, covering only the initial years of its life. Because the record lacks long-term data, it provides no insight into the degradation of components that typically require replacement after five years of service. Prospective buyers should focus their physical inspection on consumable components that are not captured by the recent clean MOT results. Despite the absence of advisories, the suspension bushes, brake discs, and pads are reaching an age where wear becomes expected. Inspect the tyre sidewalls for perishing and check the brake friction surfaces for signs of binding or uneven wear, as these items can deteriorate between annual tests. Verify the structural integrity of the underbody and exhaust system, as the MOT test does not require the removal of undertrays or covers that might conceal early-stage corrosion or fluid leaks. Buying score: 75. Risk level: Low.
