2006 Chrysler Crossfire 3.2L Petrol · B6 LGC

The most recent MOT passed in March 2026, but it specifically noted that the brake pipes were corroded and had to be cleaned and greased to pass. There is a clear and recurring pattern of corrosion on this vehicle. Brake pipe issues were flagged in both 2025 and 2026, and surface corrosion was also noted under the car in 2024. While the most recent result shows that the pipes were treated, the fact that this issue has appeared in consecutive years suggests that managing rust is a persistent maintenance requirement for this car. The vehicle has covered 104,233 miles over approximately 20 years, which averages to about 5,212 miles per year. This is low mileage for a vehicle of this age. While this can imply less wear on the engine and drivetrain, the MOT history shows signs of age-related deterioration, such as perishing tyres in 2025 and the aforementioned corrosion. This pattern can sometimes suggest a vehicle that has been used infrequently or has sat for long periods, which can exacerbate the degradation of rubber and metal components. The trend regarding corrosion appears to be a persistent issue that requires ongoing attention. While the parking brake issues noted in 2023 and 2024 seem to have been addressed, the recurring nature of the brake pipe corrosion is the most significant risk.
