Things to check

  • DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded in Jan 2021 (failed test) and recurring advisories for years.
  • MAJOR subframe corrosion advisory in Dec 2018, escalating to a failure in Jan 2021.
  • MAJOR brake disc wear advisories from 2021 to 2023, indicating a long-standing issue.
  • MAJOR suspension arm advisories from 2021 to 2023, showing a pattern of neglect.

Working in its favour

  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,280 miles/year.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded in the last 2 years.
