Mechanical Assessment
The most recent MOT on 2025-11-20 recorded three tyres worn close to the legal limit, all on different positions. This aligns with earlier findings in 2023-11-13, where front tyres showed similar wear, and the 2022-09-20 failure, which included multiple tyres below the 1.6mm tread depth requirement. Tyre wear patterns suggest consistent issues with tread degradation, possibly linked to alignment, suspension, or driving habits. A recurring mechanical pattern involves tyres and suspension components. The 2022 failure included serious shock absorber leaks, which were addressed by 2025, but tyre wear has persisted. The 2024 MOT noted thin rear brake pads, indicating potential brake system wear. These issues imply ongoing maintenance needs, particularly for tyres, brakes, and suspension. The trend shows some improvement: the 2025 MOT had no serious defects, unlike the 2022 failure. However, repeated tyre wear and brake pad thinning suggest underlying problems that may not have been fully resolved. The vehicle’s condition appears stable but requires careful inspection of components prone to wear.
