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 2026-02-26 showed the vehicle passed with 84,845 miles. Key issues included child seats obstructing adult belt inspections, but no critical defects were recorded. This contrasts with earlier entries where recurring mechanical concerns were flagged. A pattern of suspension and brake-related issues emerges across multiple MOTs. Track rod end ball joints showed slight play and damaged dust covers in 2025, while front suspension arm dust covers were severely deteriorated. Brake pads and discs also repeatedly appeared in advisories, with thin pads and pitted discs noted in 2024 and 2023. These suggest ongoing wear in steering and braking systems, though no major failures were recorded. The trend shows some stability but not improvement. Issues like track rod end play and suspension dust covers reappeared in 2025, but were not mentioned in the 2026 MOT. However, brake pad wear and tire condition issues persisted across multiple years.
