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

The vehicle exhibits consistent low annual usage, averaging 7,123 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 27,981 miles recorded over 10 years.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories across 11 tests (Jun 2021, Jun 2022, Jun 2023, Jun 2024) indicate a systemic wear item.
  • Dangerous Nearside Front Tyre defect on 2024-06-04 retest, following a 2021 advisory, signals a pattern of tyre neglect.
  • Major Nearside Front Coil spring fractured on 2021-06-04, followed by Offside Front Coil spring on 2023-06-04, points to suspension wear.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-04-29, offering peace of mind for several years.
  • Consistent low annual mileage (7,123 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects in the MOT history.
