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 passed its most recent MOT in June 2025, but it only did so after failing the previous day. This latest failure was significant, involving not just lighting issues but critical safety defects including a cut seat belt and a chafed brake hose. The condition trend appears to be worsening. Earlier failures in 2023 were limited to bulbs and tyre wear, but the 2025 test revealed more serious mechanical and safety issues, such as play in the anti-roll bar linkage and the aforementioned brake hose and seat belt defects. The recorded mileage of 101,518 miles is typical for a 15-year-old car. This suggests a standard level of use, meaning the buyer should expect normal wear on the suspension, brakes, and drivetrain components consistent with this distance. A buyer should first inspect the front brake hoses for any signs of wear or chafing and carefully check the condition of all seat belt webbing. It is also important to check the steering and suspension for any play or knocks, specifically regarding the anti-roll bar linkages.
