Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT on 2026-01-12 recorded corrosion on both rear brake pipes and front brake pads wearing thin . These issues align with a recurring pattern of brake-related wear and corrosion observed in earlier MOTs. The 2025 MOT noted corrosion on a rear brake pipe, while the 2023 MOT highlighted tyre wear and a corroded front brake hose. These findings suggest ongoing maintenance needs, particularly for braking components and tyre condition. A trend of brake system wear and corrosion is evident, with no major defects reported in 2021. However, the 2022 MOT identified a worn suspension arm bush and a deteriorated anti-roll bar dust cover, indicating potential suspension component fatigue. Tyre-related issues, including edge wear and perishing sidewalls, were noted in 2023, though these were addressed by 2026. The pattern shows no clear worsening but highlights consistent maintenance requirements rather than escalating failures. The vehicle’s low mileage (approx. 4,990 miles per year) suggests either light use or extended periods of inactivity.
