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 profile following its most recent test on 6 August 2025 at 41,007 miles. While the 2024 inspection history shows a failure, the subsequent pass indicates that the previously identified issues were rectified. The maintenance trend appears to be improving, as the vehicle transitioned from a failed test to a clean pass within a one-year period. The mileage accumulation is consistent with typical usage for a five-year-old vehicle. The car covered 29,985 miles by August 2024 and an additional 11,022 miles by August 2025. This averages approximately 11,000 miles per year over the last twelve months, which aligns with the overall lifetime average of roughly 8,200 miles per year. The data shows no signs of erratic driving patterns or long periods of inactivity. A prospective buyer should focus on the suspension components, specifically the nearside rear upper suspension arm. The 2024 test at 29,985 miles flagged a worn pin or bush, which caused the initial failure. Although the vehicle passed in August 2025, a physical inspection of the suspension bushings and arm integrity is necessary to ensure the wear has not progressed. The history also highlights a pattern of neglected tyre maintenance. The failure on 15 August 2024 was driven by multiple tyres being below the legal 1.6mm tread depth limit or worn on the edges. While these are consumable items, the fact that four tyres required attention simultaneously suggests a tendency to defer basic upkeep. Checking the current tread depth and looking for uneven wear patterns on all four tyres will confirm if the current owner is maintaining better standards.
