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's most recent MOT test, conducted on 15 June 2026, shows it is currently unroadworthy due to several critical failures, including a service brake fluctuation, a worn parking brake lever pivot, and an oil leak. The maintenance record over the past four years reveals a concerning deterioration trend. The 2021 test highlighted severe corrosion, a major exhaust leak, and excessive wear on the front upper suspension arm ball joint, indicating neglect. Subsequent tests in 2020 and 2022 showed recurring structural rust and suspension component issues, while the 2022 record introduced a modified front suspension component, suggesting unauthorised alterations that compromise safety. The low annual mileage of approximately 2,036 miles per year suggests the car has spent considerable time stationary, which accelerates corrosion and degrades rubber seals. The vehicle requires a thorough mechanical inspection to address the persistent brake inefficiency, suspension bush deterioration, and severe structural rust affecting the chassis and wheel arches. Buyers should verify the authenticity of the modifications and assess the overall structural integrity before purchase.
