- 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.
- 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.
