This 2002 Rover has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 49,835 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of issues and age warrant careful consideration.
The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage (9,864 mi/yr) until a 200 mi retest anomaly on 28 Jul 2009, which is unusual for a vehicle.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre failures (2009, 2009) and advisories (2007) indicate a pattern of wear.
- Brake system failures (2009, 2009) and advisories (2009) suggest a history of maintenance neglect.
- Unusually large mileage difference (200 mi) on 28 Jul 2009 retest pair is a significant anomaly.
- The vehicle is currently Untaxed and Not valid for MOT, requiring immediate action.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, albeit expiring in 2011.
- No persistent major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects are evident.
- Consistent annual mileage (9,864 mi/yr) suggests regular, not erratic, use.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, indicating current roadworthiness.
