It failed its MOT on 2 July 2026 (nearside registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of multiple lamps or light sources; nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover severely deteriorated; offside front lower suspension arm ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt; and 8 more) and passed 7 days later, on 9 July 2026.

Mileage at that test: 118,827 miles. The advert says 118,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
