1981 VOLKSWAGEN 2.0L PETROL

The most recent MOT in February 2020 recorded several noted items but no failures. These included wear on front brake discs, suspension arm bushes, and slight play in front wheel bearings. Tyres showed minor perishing, and corrosion was noted in the vehicle structure. No major defects were highlighted, but the presence of recurring issues suggests ongoing maintenance needs. A pattern of brake disc wear, suspension component degradation, and tyre perishing appears consistent across multiple MOTs from 2018 and 2020. Suspension arm bushes and wheel bearings showed wear without excessive movement, while brake pipes and hoses exhibited corrosion. Corrosion in the vehicle structure was noted in 2018 and 2020, though it did not compromise structural rigidity. These issues indicate gradual deterioration rather than sudden failures. The trend of defects shows no clear worsening. Some issues, like brake disc wear and tyre perishing, reoccurred but remained within acceptable limits.
