Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 7 November 2026: the latest record we hold ran out on 8 August 2025; ask the dealer for the current MOT.

It failed its MOT on 30 July 2024 (windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively; parking brake lever has excessive movement indicating incorrect adjustment; brake pedal has insufficient reserve travel; and 1 more) and passed 10 days later, on 9 August 2024.

There were no advisories at the latest test.

Mileage at that test: 98,652 miles. The advert says 98,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
