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 roadworthiness profile following a consistent period of clean inspection results. The most recent test on 07 October 2025 at 60,606 miles resulted in no defects, indicating that the car currently meets the minimum safety and emissions standards. This follows a sequence of successful passes in 2024 and 2023, suggesting that the mechanical and structural components inspected by the tester have been maintained effectively. The mileage pattern remains consistent with typical usage for a vehicle this age, averaging approximately 7,500 miles per annum. Data shows a steady progression with 3,481 miles recorded between September 2023 and August 2024, and another 4,424-mile interval between August 2024 and October 2025. This regular usage suggests the vehicle has not sat stationary, which is often beneficial for preventing seal degradation and brake corrosion, though the short interval between tests in May 2023 indicates a proactive approach to resolving failures. While the recent history is clear of advisories, the failure on 04 May 2023 at 50,865 miles indicates a specific issue that required immediate rectification to pass the re-test. A buyer should verify the nature of that previous failure to ensure it was a one-off item rather than a recurring mechanical fault. Given the age and relatively low mileage, a physical inspection should focus on the condition of suspension rubberwork and the state of the brake calipers, as these components often show age-related wear regardless of total miles driven.
