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 presents a stable maintenance profile with a clean record in its most recent inspection. The September 2025 test at 55,402 miles returned no defects or advisories, indicating that previous minor issues have been addressed. This follows a pattern of resolving minor consumable faults, such as the damaged nearside rear lamp unit noted in August 2024 at 45,151 miles. The mileage accumulation is notably low for a 2016 model, averaging approximately 5,540 miles per year. The data shows consistent, gradual increases in mileage across each annual test, from 19,221 miles in September 2021 to the current 55,402 miles. This steady progression suggests regular, light usage rather than long periods of inactivity, which helps mitigate risks associated with seized components or perished rubber seals often found in vehicles that sit idle. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on the braking system and tyre wear. The MOT history shows recurring advisories for thinning front brake pads in both August 2022 and August 2023. While the 2025 test was clear, the pads and discs should be checked for remaining life and even wear. Previous notes regarding tyres being worn close to the legal limit in 2021 and 2022 suggest the owner may wait until consumables are near failure before replacing them. The history also highlights minor electrical and visibility issues, such as defective wiper blades and damaged lamp lenses, which appear to be addressed as they arise. Given the low mileage, the mechanical integrity of the drivetrain and suspension should be sound, but a close look at the condition of the windscreen and all exterior lighting units is advised to ensure the vehicle remains free of the minor cosmetic damage seen in previous years.
