AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Saab has 16 MOT tests on record with a 81% pass rate and 32,215 miles. However, a recurring brake disc advisory and a recent failure for anti-roll bar linkages warrant careful inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,647 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.
Things to check
- Recurring brake disc advisory (flagged in 2014 and 2026) indicates ongoing wear.
- Anti-roll bar linkage play (2014) and recent failure (2026) suggest suspension wear.
- Low annual mileage (8,647 mi/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle may indicate limited use.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until March 2027 provides significant peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent mileage averaging 8,647 miles/year aligns well with UK average, showing no fraud.
- No major recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
