Mileage and MOT

MOT, from the government's MOT records (DVSA, the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency), as of 2 November 2026: valid until 12 January 2027.

It failed its MOT on 13 January 2026 (offside rear position lamp not working; offside front anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt) and passed later the same day.

Advisories at the latest test: nearside front brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened; nearside front inner drive shaft flexible coupling slightly deteriorated.

Mileage at that test: 63,818 miles. The advert says 63,000 miles, fewer than the MOT record, so ask the dealer which is right.
