Things to check

- Recurring anti-roll bar linkage advisories: Dust cover wear noted in Oct 2023 and Sep 2023 tests.
- Extremely low annual mileage: Only 3,952 miles/yr over 17 years, indicating long inactivity.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-11, providing immediate peace of mind.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories since the Sep 2023 pass.
- Consistent, low annual mileage suggests careful, light use.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
