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 currently holds a valid MOT but the history reveals a trend of worsening structural and mechanical condition. While it passed the most recent test on 28 May 2026 at 128,339 miles, this followed a failure just one day prior due to steering components. The presence of excessive play in both offside and nearside front track rod ends indicates that the front suspension is reaching the end of life and is being addressed only at the point of failure rather than through preventative maintenance. At 128,339 miles over 15 years, the vehicle has averaged approximately 8,500 miles per year, which is consistent with typical UK usage for its age. The record shows consistent use, with roughly 7,600 miles covered between June 2024 and May 2025, and another 8,400 miles between May 2025 and May 2026. This steady mileage suggests the car is a regular driver, which has exposed the chassis to consistent environmental corrosion over time. A buyer must prioritise a thorough physical inspection of the chassis and lower suspension assembly. The 2024 test flagged a corroded rear sub-frame and suspension arms, which escalated by May 2025 to seriously weakened suspension arms that caused a failure. This progression of structural rust is a significant concern for a vehicle of this era. Furthermore, the recurring misting on the nearside front shock absorber noted in 2025 suggests the seals are failing, which will eventually require component replacement to maintain handling geometry. The braking system also shows signs of neglect. Rear brake discs have been flagged as pitted or scored across three consecutive annual tests, from June 2024 through May 2026. The 2025 failure due to inadequate effort on the nearside parking brake suggests that corroded lines or seized mechanisms have not been fully remediated. Any purchaser should verify that the recent track rod end replacements were fitted correctly and check that the structural corrosion on the subframe has not progressed beyond the last recorded repair.
