Things to check

- High mileage of 113,119 miles (Aug 2008) for a 2001 vehicle is a significant wear indicator.
- Single MOT failure (2007-07-13) for a tyre cut and wiper condition, suggesting reactive maintenance.
- Brake pad advisory (Aug 2008) indicates wear items are approaching replacement costs.
Working in its favour

- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects found in the MOT history.
- The 2007-07-20 retest PASS after initial failure shows immediate rectification.
