1990 FORD GRANADA2.9L PETROL

The vehicle's roadworthiness history is defined by a series of recurring, minor mechanical defects noted during the 2006 MOT test. The most recent recorded assessment, conducted on 9 May 2006 at 178,318 miles, flagged issues concerning the parking brake efficiency, which requires adjustment or repair, and minor corrosion on the offside rear brake pipe. These findings indicate a stable, persistent pattern of wear and minor structural compromise rather than an acute mechanical failure or a rapidly worsening condition. The recorded mileage of 178,318 miles for a 1990 model suggests a relatively light usage pattern, accumulating approximately 4,953 miles per year. The MOT history is sparse, consisting only of two entries on the same date and mileage. This lack of recent testing means the current condition of the vehicle cannot be verified against the most recent regulatory standards, but the historical data confirms that the noted issues have been present and consistent over a period of years. A buyer should inspect the brake system thoroughly, specifically checking the offside rear brake pipe for any signs of further corrosion and verifying the parking brake mechanism operates smoothly. The minor exhaust leak requires attention, as it indicates a compromised seal in the exhaust system. Furthermore, the corrosion noted on the offside seat belt anchorage area should be examined for any signs of structural integrity issues, although the record suggests this area is not yet excessive.
