Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2003 model year cars.
- Roof Motor Water DamageSerious
The electric roof motor is located in a drainage cavity that blocks with leaves and debris. The motor eventually sits in a pool of water and rusts solid.
- Sticky Steering (EPS Column)Moderate
The grease in the electric power steering column can dry out or the components expand with heat, causing the steering to feel "sticky" or notchy on center.
- Rear Coil Springs SnappingModerate
The brittle rear springs often snap at the very bottom coil due to the car's weight distribution and UK potholes. It can be hard to spot without inspection.
