AI verdict AVOID 22/100
AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2007 Saab has 23 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 44,964 miles. The vehicle's age and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop in usage from 2018 to 2022, followed by a sharp increase in 2023, and then a return to lower annual mileage, indicating inconsistent and potentially fraudulent usage.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Tyres worn close to legal limit (May 2023) — immediate safety risk.
- DANGEROUS defect: Fuel system failure (Jun 2024) — critical safety component.
- Recurring major failures: Suspension (May 2023) and Emissions (Jun 2024) — structural neglect.
- Recurring advisories: Brakes (6 advisories, May 2021–Jul 2025) — persistent wear pattern.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until July 2026 — current roadworthiness certificate.
- No mileage anomalies since 2023 — recent usage appears consistent.
- Immediate retests after failures — owner addressed issues promptly.
- No recurring major failures on the same system after 2024 — recent stability.
