Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 8 November 2026: valid until 26 February 2027.

It failed its MOT on 23 February 2026 (offside lower windscreen damaged but not adversely affecting driver's view; nearside headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect kicks up to the right; offside outer seat belt installation causes a three point belt lap section to be incorrectly positioned across the occupant 3rd row belt incorrectly routed) and passed 4 days later, on 27 February 2026.

Advisories at the latest test: offside lower windscreen damaged but not adversely affecting driver's view; spare tyre defective date stamp 2009.

Mileage at that test: 47,085 miles, which matches the advertised 47,000 miles.
