1998 PEUGEOT 4062.1L DIESEL

The most recent MOT on 2019-05-09 recorded two brake disc issues (nearside and offside front discs worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened) and a suspension component mounting damage (offside front, not excessive jack damage). These were classified as "advisories" rather than defects, suggesting they were not immediately safety-critical but required monitoring. The vehicle passed this test, indicating repairs or mitigations may have been addressed. The prior MOT on 2019-04-27 revealed a more severe failure. Brake pads on both front and rear axles were below 1.5 mm, a critical wear limit. Suspension damage included offside rear sill corrosion and structural weakening, which could compromise safety. Additional issues included inoperative parking brakes, poor brake efficiency, and misaligned headlamps. These failures highlight recurring brake and suspension concerns, with some components nearing or exceeding serviceable limits. Earlier MOTs from 2018 and 2017 show a pattern of minor but recurring issues. Brake disc wear, headlight aim inaccuracies, and suspension play were documented, though most were resolved in subsequent passes.
