The vehicle is currently roadworthy, though the maintenance trend shows a shift from clean passes to reactive repairs. The most recent test in February 2026 at 151,602 miles resulted in an advisory for worn front brake discs on both sides. While the vehicle passed the test, this indicates that the braking system is reaching the end of its service life, following the clean records seen in 2023 and 2024. The mileage accumulation is exceptionally high for a six-year-old vehicle, averaging over 25,000 miles annually. Between September 2023 and February 2026, the van covered 47,175 miles in just over two years, suggesting heavy commercial use or long-distance motorway commuting. This rate of use places significant strain on the electric drivetrain, suspension geometry, and cooling components. The brief failure in February 2025 due to non-functional side repeaters suggests a lapse in basic pre-test inspections prior to that specific test. A prospective buyer must prioritise a physical inspection of the front-end suspension, as high mileage often accelerates the wear of bushes, control arms, and coil springs. Given the advisory for worn brake discs in the latest record, a thorough check of the brake pad thickness and caliper caliper condition is necessary to ensure no glazing or uneven wear. The buyer should also look for signs of structural corrosion on the chassis underbody, as high-mileage commercial vehicles are frequently exposed to harsh road conditions that can compromise structural integrity over time.
