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 remains roadworthy, having passed its most recent test in January 2026 at 59,756 miles. While the MOT history indicates consistent passes, the trend shows a persistent issue with the wheel assembly, specifically a distorted nearside front inner road wheel rim. This defect is a recurring advisory also noted in the January 2025 test at 54,093 miles, suggesting the vehicle has suffered an impact that has not yet been rectified through replacement despite multiple inspections. The mileage pattern is consistent with a nine-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 6,640 miles per year. There is a steady accumulation of mileage between tests, such as the 11,325-mile gap between January 2024 (42,768 miles) and January 2025,, followed by another 5,663 miles to the most recent test. This suggests regular use rather than long periods of തന്നെ, though the low annual mileage often leads to the degradation of rubber components as seen in the records. A buyer must conduct a physical inspection of the nearside front wheel to assess for structural cracks or deformation that could lead to a pressure loss. The history reveals a clear pattern of poor tyre maintenance, with perishing sidewalls and cracking noted between 2022 and 2023, alongside physical damage like nails and cuts in 2024. These findings indicate that previous owners may have neglected basic consumable upkeep, necessitating a thorough check of the current tyre set for age and condition of rubber-related components beyond just legal tread depth.
