The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,163 miles/year, with no anomalies or suspicious drops or spikes.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS tyre defects on 2021-12-22 and 2021-12-21 indicate severe neglect.
- Fractured Offside Rear Coil Spring on 2020-12-22 is a major structural failure.
- Recurring Headlamp Aim issues on 2023-12-22 and 2022-12-22 show persistent electrical faults.
- Recurring Tyre Wear advisories on 2024-12-22 and 2023-12-22 point to chronic under-maintenance.
Working in its favour

- Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,163 miles/year, indicating regular use.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2027-01-07, providing immediate peace of mind.
