The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,938 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 15-year history.
Things to check
- Engine oil leak noted in 3 separate MOT tests (Aug 2020, Sep 2021, Sep 2022) — persistent issue.
- Offside Front Shock absorber bush excessively worn (Aug 2020, Sep 2021) — recurring suspension wear.
- Nearside Front Service brake excessively fluctuating (Sep 2022) — brake system concern.
- Tyre defects (worn, cut, tread) flagged in 5 separate tests (Sep 2021, Sep 2022, Sep 2023, Sep 2024, Sep 2025) — consistent tyre wear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 19 Sep 2026, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,938 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects (e.g., brakes, steering).
- All 3 failures were promptly rectified and passed retests, indicating responsive ownership.
