This 2004 Daihatsu has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 36,853 miles. While it has a valid MOT now, the pattern of issues suggests potential underlying neglect.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,843 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but there are significant gaps in MOT history.
Things to check
- Recurring brake system failures (2008, 2011) and corrosion advisories (2008, 2011) indicate chronic neglect.
- Multiple lighting failures (2008, 2011) and advisories (2008, 2011) suggest a pattern of electrical issues.
- Significant MOT history gaps (2009, 2010, 2012, 2016) raise questions about the vehicle's maintenance and roadworthiness.
- The vehicle is currently on SORN status with no valid MOT, requiring immediate re-registration and inspection.
Working in its favour
- Consistent mileage trajectory over 22 years, averaging 9,843 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- All MOT failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or subsequent day, indicating responsive repairs.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or major structural corrosion issues flagged in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has a long and consistent service history, with no major accident damage evident.
