AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Rover has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 24,156 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the high mileage for its age and repeated issues warrant significant caution.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 12,783 miles/year, with a significant spike of +31,696 miles between Jan 2006 and Mar 2007.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (Mar 2008, Mar 2009) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake pad advisories (Mar 2009) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
  • High annual mileage (12,783 mi/yr) for a 24-year-old vehicle is a concern.
  • Two test failures (Mar 2007, Mar 2009) with no defect details are a red flag.

Working in its favour

  • Vehicle has a valid MOT certificate as of the last test in Apr 2010.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No major structural or engine failures recorded in the MOT history.
