Mechanical Assessment

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

The most recent MOT on 2026-05-20 recorded a defect: the nearside rear fuel pipe was corroded. This is a safety risk, as corrosion in fuel system components can lead to leaks or failures. The defect was not present in the 2023 MOT, indicating a deterioration in this specific area over the past three years. Recurring issues include tyre-related defects. In 2025-05-21, the nearside rear tyre showed “slightly damaged/cracking or perishing cracking in tread,” and the offside front tyre had a cut reaching the ply or cords. These issues resurfaced in the same year, suggesting potential neglect or exposure to harsh conditions. Tyre damage of this nature increases the risk of blowouts or loss of control. The braking system has shown consistent concerns. In 2024-05-20, the rear handbrake reserve travel was “only just met,” implying the system may require adjustment or repair. While this was a passed MOT, the marginal compliance highlights a potential safety vulnerability.
