The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,953 miles per year, with a significant 2020 service gap and inconsistent mileage readings.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jan 2026): Offside Front Tyre has a bulge, caused by separation or partial failure of its s
  • DANGEROUS tyre defects on 2022-02-01 and 2024-01-31 indicate severe neglect.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (2021, 2022, 2024) suggest ongoing wear and potential issues.
  • A 2020 service gap is a major red flag for an 18-year-old vehicle's maintenance history.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-31, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
