Check before you buy — for this car

  1. On this carLamps & visibility. item fixed during the test recorded in the last two years (2019, 2026). Worth asking someone to watch while you work every lamp and indicator, and checking the wipers clear the screen cleanly.
  2. Nothing recentSuspension & steering. A top failure area for 2015 Merivas. Recorded on this car in 2021, 2023, nothing in the last two years. Worth looking behind each wheel with a torch at the coil springs and bushes, and listening for knocks over bumps on a test drive.
  3. Nothing recentExhaust & emissions. A top failure area for 2015 Merivas. Nothing on this car’s record. Worth checking that the engine warning light goes out after starting, and noticing any smoke from the exhaust.
  4. Nothing recentBrakes. A top failure area for 2015 Merivas. Recorded on this car in 2021, 2024, nothing in the last two years. Worth looking at the discs and pads through the wheel spokes for scoring and a worn lip, and noticing on a test drive whether the car pulls to one side or the pedal feels long.

MOT data sourced from DVSA, used under the Open Government Licence v3.0. DVSA bulk record as of 27 Sep 2026. DVLA-only fields (tax status, tax due, annual road tax, ULEZ/CO2/Euro status, export marker, wheel plan, type approval, V5C date, recalls) are not loaded until someone presses "Check latest from DVLA & DVSA". Sections 3 and 4 are SortedCars’ arithmetic on the same public record and on DVSA test statistics; they describe the record, not the car’s condition, and are not advice about buying it. Always have a used car inspected before you buy. Check the official record at GOV.UK: check MOT history.

About this page

This is the public record for one vehicle, drawn from two free government sources: DVLA (loaded when someone presses "Check latest from DVLA & DVSA") for the registration — make, year, colour, fuel, emissions, tax and MOT status — and DVSA for every MOT result and mileage reading since 2005. Nothing here costs anything, and nothing here identifies the keeper.

What it cannot tell you is the commercial history: outstanding finance, insurance write-offs and stolen markers. Those come from Experian and are not public. They are the difference between a car you can drive and a car you can lose — see SortedCars Reports, or read the longer guide on the free car check.

The DVLA and DVSA data on this page contains public sector information licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. SortedCars is not affiliated with, or endorsed by, the DVLA or DVSA.

This page shows vehicle information only — no keeper details and no vehicle identification number. Built on 6 October 2026 from the DVSA bulk MOT record as of 27 September 2026; DVLA fields load when someone presses "Check latest from DVLA & DVSA".
