Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle passed its December 2025 MOT at 61,804 miles but with advisories for slight play in both front upper suspension ball joints. Recurring suspension and tyre issues across multiple tests show a persistent maintenance trend. The 2023 failure due to severely corroded front suspension mounting was addressed, but current ball joint wear and ongoing tyre cracking indicate unresolved component deterioration. Mileage accumulation is minimal at 1,212 miles per year over 51 years. Between October 2022 and November 2023, the car recorded only 329 miles. Annual increases since then remained under 250 miles. This low usage accelerates rubber and corrosion problems despite low wear from driving. Inspect front suspension mounts and ball joints for corrosion or wear. Check all tyres for dry rot, as they were cracked in every MOT from 2023 to 2024. Examine rear suspension arms and exhaust for rust, given previous corrosion advisories. Verify fluid levels and seals, as prolonged inactivity often degrades these systems.
