BETAWe’ve analysed this vehicle’s history and highlighted what matters, what to check, and what it could mean for you.

Overall assessment
AvoidThis vehicle has a serious history concern.
0/999 — Very High Risk vehicle history
Recorded as stolen — do not purchase until the status is officially resolved. Buying it before that clearance could mean you lose the car and the money you paid. Also on this report: outstanding finance, an unverified Category S write-off, a mileage discrepancy, previous MOT failures, a salvage auction record, a high-risk marker. Do not buy until that concern is resolved with paperwork you can check.

Latest mileage
Discrepancy
Odometer history
Last recorded 07 Sept 2026 · MOT odometer
1 recorded drop of more than 100 miles between readings.
Mileage note
The mileage is above 100,000 miles, therefore the mechanical parts will start to become worn and issues may start to occur.
Mileage note
A later mileage reading is lower than previous MOT readings, which suggests a discrepancy.
