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 roadworthiness status following a successful test on 30 October 2025 at 87,667 miles. While the most recent result shows no defects, the immediate history indicates a period of neglected consumable maintenance. The vehicle failed its inspection on 29 October 2025 at 87,619 miles due to significant tyre degradation, specifically heavy edge wear on both front tyres and structural damage to the nearside rear tyre where the ply or cords were exposed. This failure followed an advisory in the October 2024 test at 76,295 miles regarding the offside rear tyre being worn close to the legal limit. The mileage accumulation appears consistent with a typical usage pattern for an eight-year-old vehicle. The car has covered approximately 87,667 miles, averaging roughly 11,000 miles per year. The data shows steady progression from 44,117 miles in November 2021 to the current 87,667 miles in October 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing intervals, suggesting the vehicle has been in regular use rather than sitting idle for extended periods. A prospective buyer should focus on the suspension and wheel alignment. The recurring pattern of uneven tyre wear, noted in both the 2024 and 2025 tests, strongly suggests underlying issues with wheel alignment, worn suspension bushes, or potentially damaged control arms. The distortion of the nearside front road wheel noted in the September 2022 test at 53,526 miles further supports the need for a close inspection of the steering and suspension geometry to ensure no permanent damage remains. Brake component wear also warrants attention. The records show thin brake pads flagged in both September 2023 and November 2021. While these are standard consumable items, the frequency of these advisories indicates that maintenance is often reactive rather than proactive. A physical inspection of the brake discs for scoring or thinning and a check of the remaining pad life is necessary to ensure the braking system is not nearing another service interval.
