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

The 2026‑06‑08 MOT at 98,612 miles passed, confirming current roadworthiness, yet the record reveals a pattern of recurring tyre and brake wear and missing wheel fixings that suggest underlying maintenance issues. Mileage has risen from 34,852 miles in late 2019 to 98,612 miles by mid‑2026, averaging about 9,861 miles per year, with notable accelerations such as the 11,500‑mile jump between the 2022 and 2023 tests and a 5,000‑mile increase in the 13 months preceding the latest test, indicating heavy use and irregular service intervals. Recurrent failures on tyre tread depth below 1.6 mm, edge‑worn tyres, and progressively worn, scored or pitted brake discs, together with missing wheel fixing bolts, point to persistent mechanical concerns that could affect suspension bushes, coil springs, brake calipers and structural integrity. A buyer should therefore inspect suspension bushes and coil springs for binding or corrosion, verify that all wheel fixing bolts are present and secure, examine brake discs for scoring, pitting or excessive wear, confirm tyre tread depth and condition, and look for any structural rust or chassis damage, as the history shows these items have been repeatedly flagged despite recent MOT success.
