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

The vehicle is currently roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT on 28 October 2025 recorded 34 336 miles and returned a pass with no defects, confirming that the car has remained within acceptable standards throughout its recent service history. The preceding four tests from November 2021 to November 2024 all passed without recorded faults, indicating a consistent pattern of upkeep rather than a deteriorating condition. Mileage accumulation has been modest relative to the car’s age. Over roughly six years the odometer advanced from 30 930 miles in November 2021 to 34 336 miles in October 2025, an increase of just 3 406 miles—approximately 568 miles per year. This low annual mileage suggests light use or extended periods of storage, which typically reduces wear on consumables such as tyres, brakes and drivetrain components. The test intervals are annual and evenly spaced, providing a clear picture of gradual mileage growth without sudden jumps that might indicate heavy usage or neglected servicing. Although the MOT record shows no recurring faults, a prospective buyer should still conduct a hands‑on inspection of key systems. Check the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracks or excessive play, examine the brake discs and calipers for uneven wear or binding, and assess the exhaust for corrosion. Visualise the under‑body for rust spots, particularly around wheel arches and the sills, and verify tyre tread depth and pressure across all four wheels. Also inspect wiper blades, battery terminals, fluid levels and the condition of the convertible top mechanism. These checks will confirm that the low‑mileage history has not masked any latent structural or mechanical issues that a static MOT record might overlook.
