Things to check
- Jan 2020: Failed MOT for exposed ply/cords on both front tyres, a dangerous defect.
- Jan 2019: Advisory for worn nearside front tyre close to legal limit, escalating to failure.
- Jan 2022: Advisory for offside rear tyre badly cracking, a recurring wear issue.

Working in its favour
