The vehicle remains technically roadworthy, but the maintenance trend shows a pattern of deferred attention regarding consumable components. While the most recent test on August 11 2025 at 31,782 miles passed without failures, it noted advisories for cracking and perishing on both rear tyres. This suggests that while the vehicle is being used, the rubber components are showing degradation due to age or periods of standing rather than high mileage-related wear. At 31,782 miles over five years, the car has averaged approximately 6,356 miles per year, which aligns with typical low-to-moderate usage. The gap between the August 2024 test at 26,497 miles and the 2025 test shows a consistent interval of 5,285 miles. This low mileage generally implies less strain on the drivetrain and engine components, though it explains the age-related perishing of the tyres despite the low distance covered. A buyer must inspect the front suspension thoroughly, as the 2024 test flagged a noise from the offside front alongside uneven wear on the front tyres. This combination often indicates worn suspension bushes, ball joints, or incorrect alignment that has prematurely degraded the rubber. The record also noted a smeared wiper and an insecure rear registration plate in 2024, which are minor issues but suggest a reactive approach to maintenance. Verify the state of all four tyres for further sidewalling or cracking, as the 2025 advisory indicates the rear pair was nearing the end of their structural life.
