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 in November 2024 was a pass, but it highlighted significant structural concerns, specifically corrosion on the rear subframe, both rear wishbone arms, and the front and rear chassis areas. It also noted uneven tread on the nearside rear tyre. There is a clear and worsening pattern regarding corrosion. In 2022, the MOT noted only signs of body corrosion. By 2023, the rear subframe was recorded as corroded. By the 2024 test, the issues had escalated to include the wishbone arms and multiple chassis areas. This progression suggests the structural condition is deteriorating. In terms of mechanical components, the 2022 MOT included a failed test with several defects, including incorrect indicator colours and headlamp aim issues. That same year also saw advisories for brake fluctuations and wear on the nearside and offside rear brake discs. In 2023, a suspension arm ball joint dust cover was noted as severely deteriorated.
