All Known Issues

Cracked or chipped windscreen

ModerateBodywork & Rust

The LEVC TX's large, vertically mounted front windscreen is prone to stone chips and cracks, and windscreen/wiper/mirror faults are the most common MOT failure area on the model. A crack in the driver's line of sight is an MOT failure, and a full windscreen replacement on this large, specially shaped unit is a dealer-dominated job.

Est. Repair Cost: £250–£450
Warning Signs:

Chip or crack visible in the windscreen, Wiper does not clear the screen effectively, MOT failure on windscreen or mirrors

What to Inspect:
  • Inspect the windscreen, especially the driver's sightline, for chips and cracks
  • Run the wipers and washers and check both door mirrors are intact
  • Review past MOT certificates for windscreen advisories or failures

Suspension pins and bushes wear

ModerateSuspension & Chassis

Worn suspension pins and bushes are a recurring MOT failure on the LEVC TX, particularly on higher-mileage ex-taxi examples that have spent years over London speed cushions and potholes. Excessively worn pins and bushes cause a test failure, while worn-but-not-excessive examples generate advisories that will likely need attention soon after purchase.

Est. Repair Cost: £150–£350
Warning Signs:

Knocking or rattling from the suspension over bumps, Vague or loose steering feel, MOT failure or advisory for worn suspension pins or bushes

What to Inspect:
  • Push down on each corner; the body should rise once and settle
  • Listen for knocks over speed bumps and rough roads on a test drive
  • Check MOT history for repeated suspension pins and bushes advisories
