Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 6 November 2026: valid until 23 April 2027.

It failed its MOT on 23 April 2026 (windscreen washer not working; offside side repeater not working; offside rear coil spring fractured or broken) and passed 1 day later, on 24 April 2026.

Advisories at the latest test: fuel pipe/s corroded; rear brake pipe corroded, covered in grease or other material; headlamp has a product on the lens but not seriously reducing light output both; and 5 more.

Mileage at that test: 146,075 miles. The advert says 145,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
