Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (worn, damaged) across multiple tests.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2025): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until November 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its 18-year age, suggesting regular use.
