Expert AI · Mechanic's Insight
The most recent MOT on 2026-06-01 recorded a pass with a single note: the battery was insecure but not likely to fall from its carrier. However, this follows a failure just two days earlier on 2026-05-29, which listed multiple critical issues. These included an inoperative engine MIL (indicating potential undetected engine faults), split or deteriorated constant velocity drive shaft boots , a corroded and missing rear exhaust mount , and a non-functional nearside side repeater . The failure highlights ongoing mechanical concerns, despite the recent pass. Recurring issues dominate the MOT history. The battery insecurity has been noted in four of the last five MOTs, suggesting a persistent problem with the battery’s mounting or condition. Drive shaft constant velocity boots have been repeatedly described as "severely deteriorated" or "split," which could indicate inadequate maintenance or age-related degradation. Exhaust system defects , including corroded mounts and missing components, also appear consistently. These patterns suggest repeated failures to address critical wear points , raising concerns about the vehicle’s long-term reliability. The trend indicates worsening conditions .
