- Recurring tyre advisories across 5 tests (2020, 2021, 2022, 2024, 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring windscreen minor defects on 2020-07-02 and 2022-07-06 suggest a persistent issue.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-22, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,974 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
