Things to check

  • MOT currently 'Not valid' with an expiry date of 2026-03-31 — a critical and unexplained discrepancy.
  • Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2024-03-01 (test failed) — indicates past neglect and potential ongoing issues.
  • Offside Rear Tyre slightly damaged/cracking advisory on 2025-03-01 — indicates recent wear.

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, normal mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • Single minor MOT failure (tyre) in 2024 was immediately rectified and passed.
  • No recurring major system failures (brakes, suspension, steering) beyond advisories.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates strong safety features.
