Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2017 model year cars.
- Clutch Master Cylinder FailureSerious
Heat from the engine/exhaust boils the fluid and degrades the seals. The pedal will stick to the floor, often requiring a "clam-off" repair.
- Door Latch & Window NigglesModerate
The door release mechanisms and window drop functions are prone to failure, often requiring the replacement of the door latch assembly.
- Air Conditioning Evaporator FailureModerate
Similar to the Elise, the A/C system is a weak point, with the evaporator being a labor-heavy "dash-out" job to replace.
