Historical MOT pass rates and DVLA records for 2008 model year cars.
- Rear Coil Spring BreakageModerate
Rear springs corrode and snap, often showing up first as a failed MOT rather than obvious poor ride.
- 1.5 dCi Injector, Turbo and DPF TroubleSerious
The Renault-derived diesel can be economical, but injector leaks, turbo wear and blocked DPFs create stacked bills on neglected cars.
- Steering Rack KnockModerate
A clonk through the steering over low-speed bumps is common and can point to rack wear or tired front-end joints.
