MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 4 November 2026: valid until 10 April 2027.

It failed its MOT on 8 April 2026 (offside windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively; nearside windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively; nearside rear tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm) and passed later the same day.

Advisories at the latest test: oil leak, but not excessive; nearside front lower suspension arm ball joint has slight play; nearside front wheel bearing has slight play; and 1 more.
