Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The most recent MOT in July 2025 was a pass, but it noted defective wiper blades and corrosion on the rear sub-frame and trailing arm mountings. A recurring pattern of corrosion is evident on the rear sub-frame, which has been noted in multiple MOT tests since 2022. Although the sub-frame and trailing arm mountings have been described as not seriously weakened and not considered excessive, this is a persistent issue. The condition of these components appears stable, but the corrosion is a recurring theme in the vehicle's history. At 13 years old, the vehicle has covered 117,595 miles, which is roughly 9,046 miles per year. This is typical for its age and suggests standard usage. A buyer should inspect the condition of the underside, specifically checking the extent of the corrosion on the rear sub-frame and trailing arm mountings. It is also important to inspect the condition of the rear suspension components and the coil springs.
