Things to check

  • Dangerous tyre defect recorded on Sep 2018 MOT test.
  • Recurring major failures in suspension (Sep 2023), brakes (Sep 2020), and lights (Sep 2019).

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage for the first 15 years (2018-2022) suggests regular use.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories since Sep 2023.
