Mechanical Assessment

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

The 2025‑08‑26 MOT at 131,249 miles passed with no defects, confirming the vehicle’s current roadworthiness and indicating a stable maintenance trend. No recurring mechanical failures have been recorded across the recent tests. At 14 years old, the 131,249‑mile odometer reflects an average annual mileage of 9,375 miles, which is typical for this model. The period from the 2022‑01‑06 test (112,022 miles) to the 2024‑07‑22 test (120,491 miles) added roughly 8,500 miles over 2.5 years, a steady rate, and the 15‑mile difference between the August 2025 tests shows recent use without abrupt changes. A buyer should therefore inspect the rear suspension bushes and coil springs for wear, verify that the brake calipers are not binding and that the discs show no scoring, and examine the chassis and wheel arches for any structural rust or damage. Tyre tread and wiper condition are consumable items that may require replacement but do not indicate systemic neglect. While the documented history shows no major mechanical concerns, a thorough in‑person assessment of these components remains essential before purchase.
