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

The most recent MOT on 2025-11-13 recorded two brake discs worn but not excessively and a near-limit tyre. These issues suggest ongoing wear on critical safety components, particularly the braking system and tyres. The brake discs’ condition indicates regular use, while the tyre’s near-limit status highlights potential neglect in maintenance. Recurring defects include tyre wear, brake disc deterioration, and a minor exhaust leak. Tyres were flagged in 2024 and 2025, while brake discs were noted in 2025 and 2022. The 2024 MOT also identified a minor exhaust leak, and a 2022 suspension component showed wear. These issues point to gradual degradation of high-mileage parts, though none were severe enough to fail the test. The trend shows intermittent defects rather than consistent worsening. A clean 2023 MOT suggests stability, but the 2024–2025 entries reveal emerging wear. The pattern implies normal aging for a 13-year-old vehicle with average annual mileage (9,422 miles).
