2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · SW65 PXV

The most recent MOT on 2025-10-07 recorded two brake disc issues (nearside and offside front discs worn, pitted, or scored but not seriously weakened) and a slightly worn nearside front shock absorber bush. These were the only defects, and the test passed. However, the prior MOT on 2025-09-30 revealed a more severe failure, including a corroded and seriously weakened front sub-frame, insecure front exhaust system, and multiple brake-related issues. The vehicle also failed for a cut tyre in 2024, though it passed the same day. The pattern of defects highlights recurring concerns with braking components, suspension, and structural integrity. Brake discs and shock absorbers were flagged in both 2025 MOTs, suggesting potential wear or inconsistent maintenance. The front sub-frame corrosion and exhaust system issues point to possible exposure to harsh conditions or neglect. While the 2025-10-07 MOT showed improvements, the persistence of brake disc wear indicates ongoing mechanical stress. The condition trend appears mixed. Some critical issues (e.g., sub-frame corrosion) were addressed between 2025-09-30 and 2025-10-07, but others, like brake disc wear, remained.
