Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight

The most recent MOT, on 2026-03-17, was passed with several corrosion-related issues on the rear coil springs, front anti-roll bar, and a worn suspension bush. Corrosion on load-bearing components is a serious concern and should be inspected thoroughly. The vehicle has a recurring pattern of poor braking and suspension performance. In the 2025-03-15 MOT, brake discs were worn. The failed MOT just two days later on 2025-03-14 highlighted multiple brake failures, including front brake pads below 1.5 mm, and parking brake inefficiency. This indicates a deterioration in braking performance that has not been fully resolved. Suspension issues are also persistent. The 2025-03-14 MOT noted a suspension arm likely to become detached, and the 2026 MOT again found a worn suspension bush. This suggests a lack of proper maintenance or a failure to address underlying wear. The vehicle has consistently high mileage, with 93,699 miles on a 12-year-old car.
