Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 1996 model year cars.
- King Pin & Bush WearModerate
The traditional sliding pillar suspension relies on manual greasing. If missed, the pins and bushes wear, leading to poor handling and MOT failure.
- Ash Frame RotSerious
The body panels are tacked to an ash wood frame. Moisture trapped behind the panels or under the wings can rot the wood.
- Galvanic CorrosionModerate
Aluminum body panels reacting with the steel chassis or fasteners can cause "bubbling" in the paint.
