The MOT history shows a critical mileage decrease between 74,425 miles in March 2008 and 50,835 miles in March 2009, indicating possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Mar 2008 (74,425 mi) and Mar 2009 (50,835 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • DANGEROUS brake failure recorded in Jan 2021 (143,782 mi) — a critical safety defect.
  • DANGEROUS suspension failure recorded in Sep 2023 (157,546 mi) — another severe safety concern.
  • Mileage decreased from 74,425 miles (Mar 2008) to 50,835 miles (Mar 2009) — strong evidence of odometer tampering.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 7 historical failures
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,107 miles/year (UK average 8,000) — no unusual usage patterns.
  • No recurring failures on the same system after initial fixes — owner addressed specific issues.
