The vehicle shows consistent annual mileage until 2025, but a significant spike of 29,379 miles occurred between May 2025 and June 2026, indicating a change in usage or driving style.

Things to check

  • 2026-06-01: Nearside Front Inner Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split (MAJOR failure) — critical suspension safety.
  • 2026-06-01: Anti-roll bar bush advisory — indicates ongoing suspension wear and potential future repairs.
  • 2026-06-01: Tyre advisory noted — suggests worn tyres that will need replacement soon.
  • 2025-02-17: Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (PRS failure) — minor but indicates owner neglect.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-06-01 — no immediate retest required.
  • No mileage discrepancies or rollbacks detected in the MOT history.
  • No recurring major failures on the same system over time.
  • Recent MOT pass on 2026-06-01 shows current roadworthiness.
