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

The vehicle's most recent MOT history shows an improving trend in terms of pass consistency, following a failure on 23 January 2026. The subsequent test on 27 January 2026 resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. This follows a pattern of intermittent failures, specifically the failure on 24 January 2024, though the vehicle has successfully passed three consecutive annual tests since that period. The recorded mileage of 68,479 miles indicates an average annual usage of approximately 5,268 miles over the thirteen-year lifespan of the vehicle. This represents low-mileage usage compared to typical UK averages. While the MOT records provide specific dates for testing, they do not provide the incremental mileage for each individual test, making it impossible to track precise annual mileage accumulation or identify periods where the vehicle may have been stationary. The MOT history is notably sparse regarding specific mechanical defects, as the records for the failures in 2024 and 2026 do not list the specific components that caused the failures. A buyer should conduct a thorough physical inspection of common wear items that often trigger such failures, such as brake pad thickness, disc condition, tyre tread depth, and the integrity of suspension bushes and coil springs. Given the low annual mileage, a physical check for signs of fluid leaks or perished rubber components due to age-related degradation is also advisable. buying_score: 75 risk_level: Low.
