Things to check

  • High annual mileage (37,142 mi/yr) indicates accelerated wear and maintenance.
  • Recurring failures on safety-critical systems (tyres, brakes, lights) suggest poor maintenance.
  • Multiple recurring suspension advisories (6) and steering advisories (2) across multiple tests.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2024) indicates a safe vehicle.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • The vehicle has a consistent MOT testing history since its first registration in 2007.
