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 September 20 2025 shows the car passed with two minor defects - a deteriorated front registration plate and play in the nearside steering rack inner joint. The vehicle failed its MOT just eleven days earlier on September 9 2025 due to multiple serious issues including a major exhaust leak, emissions failure, non-functioning headlamp, steering problems, and registration plate issues. The failure required immediate repairs before retesting. A clear deterioration pattern emerges across the MOT history. The 2023 test showed corroded coil springs all around, exhaust deterioration, and drive belt wear. By 2024 the exhaust problems worsened to major leaks, coolant leaks appeared, and steering play developed. The 2025 failure included the worst exhaust leak category. The condition trend is definitely worsening. What started as minor spring corrosion and exhaust deterioration has progressed to major safety failures including steering play and exhaust gas leaks. The steering rack issue has persisted since at least February 2024.
