Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Sep 2015 (132,513 mi) and Sep 2016 (100,708 mi) — possible odometer tamper
  • Mileage decreased from 132,513 miles (Sep 2015) to 100,708 miles (Sep 2016), suggesting odometer tampering.
  • Recurring major failures in the brake system across multiple tests (Jul 2008, Sep 2010, Sep 2013, Aug 2014).
  • Recurring major failures in the suspension system across multiple tests (Sep 2010, Sep 2013, Aug 2014).

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
  • Consistent annual mileage before the anomaly (9,526 miles/yr), suggesting regular use.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, indicating the owner addressed immediate issues.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers in the provided data.
