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 is currently in a precarious state regarding its structural integrity, showing a worsening trend of corrosion. While it passed its most recent test on 16 December 2025 at 119,396 miles, the tester flagged the underside as corroded. This follows a pattern of deteriorating metalwork, specifically the rear suspension mounting areas which were noted as corroded in December 2024. The mileage is consistent with the age of the car, averaging roughly 6,284 miles per year over 19 years. The record shows steady usage, with an increase of approximately 3,300 miles annually between 2021 and 2025. There are no significant gaps in the testing history or sudden spikes in mileage that would suggest periods of neglect or unusual commercial use. A buyer must prioritize a thorough inspection of the chassis and rear suspension. The vehicle failed on 16 December 2024 due to a seriously weakened nearside rear suspension arm, and the subsequent pass on the same day suggests a repair was carried out. However, the persistent mention of corrosion in the prescribed mounting areas and the general underside corrosion noted in the latest 2025 test indicate that rust is an ongoing systemic issue rather than an isolated fault. The braking system has a history of instability. The tester flagged a restricted offside front caliper in December 2015, a binding nearside front brake in November 2016, and a binding offside rear service brake in December 2023. Combined with a previous failure for an excessively corroded offside rear brake pipe in 2016, these entries suggest a tendency for calipers to seize and lines to degrade. An inspection should verify the current condition of all brake pipes and the free movement of the calipers.
