This 2002 Rover has 15 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 58,704 miles. The vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT, making it unroadworthy and uninsurable.
The mileage trajectory shows high annual usage (12,885 miles/yr), with a significant spike of 24,414 miles in just 46 days between March 2012 MOTs, indicating potential odometer fraud.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: 3 test failures within 12 months (Aug 2006 – Feb 2007)
- MOT expired 2013-03-14; vehicle is currently untaxed and has no valid MOT.
- 6 test failures and 5 major defects recorded across 15 MOT tests.
- Recurring tyre and brake issues (tyres: 5 major failures, brakes: 4 major failures).
Working in its favour
- No single system has failed repeatedly in the last 3 years, indicating some maintenance.
- The vehicle has a consistent, albeit high, mileage history with no suspicious drops.
- The car has been regularly tested for MOTs since its first registration in 2002.
