This 2008 Daihatsu has 16 MOT tests on record with a 94% pass rate and 10,709 miles. However, a significant mileage anomaly and a recent steering advisory warrant careful investigation.
The mileage trajectory shows a 10,709-mile reading in March 2011, which is unusually low for an 18-year-old vehicle, and a subsequent 43,107-mile reading in July 2018, indicating a significant jump in usage.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 10,709 miles in March 2011 is extremely low for an 18-year-old car.
- Mileage anomaly: 43,107 miles in July 2018 is a significant jump from the 2011 reading.
- Steering advisory: Aug 2025 MOT advisory for steering rack wear requires immediate attention.
Working in its favour
- Strong MOT record: 8 of 8 tests passed with no failures recorded.
- Valid MOT until 2026: No immediate retest required, offering peace of mind.
- No dangerous defects: All past advisories were minor and immediately rectified.
- Consistent recent mileage: Annual usage has been consistent since 2018.
