This 2008 Can-Am has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 662 miles. The extremely low mileage and recurring advisories on critical components make this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory shows a clear decrease from 662 miles in May 2012 to 0 miles in February 2014, and again from 721 miles in January 2015 to 263 miles in February 2016, strongly suggesting odometer tampering.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between May 2012 (663 mi) and Feb 2014 (0 mi) — possible odometer tampering.
- Mileage decreased from 662 mi (May 2012) to 0 mi (Feb 2014) — possible odometer tampering.
- Mileage decreased from 721 mi (Jan 2015) to 263 mi (Feb 2016) — further evidence of tampering.
- Extremely low lifetime mileage: 1,446 mi over 18 years, far below UK average.
Working in its favour
- Current MOT is valid until April 2027, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
- No recent major failures or dangerous defects recorded on the latest MOT test.
- The vehicle has been consistently registered and taxed since its first registration in 2008.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers in the provided data.
