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 30 October 2026; ask the dealer for the current MOT.

It failed its MOT on 30 October 2025 (nearside front suspension arm ball joint excessively worn; offside front suspension arm ball joint excessively worn; nearside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint excessively worn; and 2 more) and passed 1 day later, on 31 October 2025.

Advisories at the latest test: nearside rear brake disc worn, but not excessively; offside rear brake disc worn, but not excessively; offside rear service brake efficiency only just met. it would appear that the braking system requires adjustment or repair.

Mileage at that test: 65,540 miles, which matches the advertised 70,575 miles.
