Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 8 November 2026: the latest record we hold ran out on 29 January 2016; ask the dealer for the current MOT.

It failed its MOT on 24 December 2014 (centre front exhaust engine idle speed too high (7.3.A.2a); centre rear spare wheel insecure; nearside rear brake back plate(s) securing device excessively deteriorated (3.5.1j); and 5 more) and passed 37 days later, on 30 January 2015.

There were no advisories at the latest test.

Mileage at that test: 86,231 miles. The advert says 85,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
