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

The 2017 Lotus Exige has a clean MOT history, with all recent tests passing without recorded defects. The most recent MOT on 2026-04-07 (12,241 miles) confirmed no issues, and prior tests from 2022 to 2025 also showed no defects. This suggests the vehicle has maintained compliance with safety standards over the past four years. The mileage progression shows a steady annual increase, from 8,756 miles in 2022 to 12,241 miles in 2026. At 9 years old, the average annual mileage of 1,360 miles is unusually low, which could indicate infrequent use or periods of storage. While low mileage often correlates with less wear on components like brakes and suspension, it may also lead to issues such as fluid degradation, battery weakness, or rubber component aging if the vehicle has not been driven regularly. The MOT history does not reveal any recurring mechanical patterns or worsening trends. All tests have passed without defects, and no advisories or failures are recorded. However, the low mileage relative to the vehicle’s age means the buyer should verify how the car has been maintained during periods of inactivity. For example, fluid levels, battery health, and tire condition could be affected by long-term storage.
