Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The most recent MOT, dated 2026-03-16, passed but noted several issues, including a slightly discoloured front direction indicator and oil leaks. A significant recurring pattern across the recent history involves corrosion on both the nearside and offside brake pipes, which was noted in the 2024 failure and subsequent passes. There is also a consistent note regarding play in the steering rack inner joints on both the nearside and offside. The trend in the MOT history shows that while some issues were noted in the most recent inspection, the vehicle has passed subsequent inspections, suggesting that the immediate mechanical concerns have been addressed or are not critical failures at this time. The mileage of 112,744 miles for a vehicle of this age suggests a relatively low annual mileage, which could indicate lighter use or periods where the vehicle has been stationary. However, the presence of brake pipe corrosion and suspension component wear noted in previous entries suggests that wear has occurred despite the mileage level. A buyer should first thoroughly inspect the brake lines for any signs of active leaks or further corrosion. Secondly, check the steering system for any excessive play in the inner joints. Finally, examine the tyres, particularly the rear tyres, for any signs of damage or cracking.
