2015 CAN-AM Spyder 1.3L Petrol · YH15 AFN

The 2015 Can-Am Spyder stands as roadworthy following the most recent DVSA test on 1 April 2026 at 33,837 miles, which returned a pass with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the available history is stable, showing no worsening mechanical or structural issues and no recurring advisories across successive annual examinations. Mileage accumulation reflects light use for an eleven-year-old machine. The record shows 20,170 miles at the 25 May 2023 test, rising to 26,089 miles by 30 May 2024, then 30,986 miles on 22 May 2025 and 33,837 miles on 1 April 2026. Annual gains of roughly 5,900, 4,900 and 2,850 miles indicate gentle, declining usage. A notable anomaly appears on 28 May 2024 when the tester issued a fail at 26,082 miles yet recorded no defects; two days later the vehicle passed at 26,089 miles with no defects. This clustered pair of tests with negligible mileage suggests an administrative re-test rather than a mechanical fault, but the sparse record leaves the original failure reason unstated. Buyers should physically inspect components that low-mileage but aged vehicles commonly obscure. The MOT history never flagged binding calipers, worn suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, exhaust emissions failures or structural integrity concerns, yet rubber perishes and fluids degrade with time. The buyer must inspect tyre sidewalls for cracking, brake disc surface rust, and chassis joints for corrosion. The unexplained 2024 failure requires the buyer to obtain the full DVSA test sheet and confirm no hidden mechanical defect preceded the pass. The clean advisory profile across four passes implies previous keepers addressed consumables before each test, though the absence of recorded advisories prevents confirmation of proactive suspension or brake servicing. Given the low yearly average of around 3,076 miles, prolonged standing remains possible. A pre-purchase inspection should prioritise lubrication of linkages, assessment of structural integrity at frame junctions, and verification of battery and fuel system condition.
