- Multiple major failures in a single test (Nov 2013) — Nearside Headlamp, Registration plate lamp, and both rear brake discs.
- MOT currently 'Not valid' with expiry 2022-06-05 — a 17-year-old vehicle should have a valid MOT.
Working in its favour

- All major failures were addressed and passed subsequent retests promptly.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a generally safe vehicle.
