Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The most recent MOT on 6 March 2026 recorded a failure. The vehicle was flagged for an off‑side headlamp aim that is clearly incorrect, and the report also notes deteriorating plastic headlamps, corroded rear brake‑disc shields, rear sub‑frame corrosion (not yet seriously weakened), front tyres worn close to the legal limit with edge wear on both sides, and a corroded rear coil spring on both sides. A similar set of items appears on the 6 March 2026 pass record, but the failure entry supersedes the pass because the headlamp aim defect makes the vehicle unsafe for road use until corrected. The failure therefore represents the current condition that a buyer must address. Across the last three years a clear pattern emerges. Recurrent issues include: Headlamp deterioration and aim problems (2025 and 2026). Suspension‑related wear – fractured nearside front coil spring, excessive wear of trailing‑arm bushes on both sides, and a corroded rear coil spring (2025‑2026). Corrosion of the rear sub‑frame and brake‑disc shields (2024‑2026). Tyre wear approaching the legal limit (2024‑2026). A non‑functioning horn and an oil leak in 2025.
