Things to check

  • 2013 MOT gap: Vehicle was off-road or SORN for a full year, raising questions about maintenance.
  • Recurring suspension failures: Offside Rear Trailing arm bush (2015), Nearside Front coil spring (2015), Offside Rear coil spring (2017) — indicates chronic neglect.
  • Exhaust advisories: Recurring issues across multiple tests (2010, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2017) suggest a persistent problem.
  • Engine oil and tyre advisories: Recurring advisories for engine oil (2017) and tyres (2011, 2017) indicate a pattern of deferred maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Clean recent MOT pass: Vehicle passed its MOT on 2017-08-31, indicating it was roadworthy at that time.
  • Low mileage for age: The car has covered only 30,402 miles in 19 years, suggesting light use and potentially lower wear.
  • No recent failures: The last MOT failure was in 2017, and the vehicle has been passed since, showing some recent care.
