Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Feb 2025): Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick both (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2023-08-30 (test 3) — immediate safety risk.
  • Recurring suspension arm advisories (2022-08-30, 2023-08-30, 2026-01-30) indicate chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake disc advisories (2022-08-30, 2023-08-30, 2026-01-30) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-03 provides immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent annual mileage (9,700 mi/yr) aligns with typical UK usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
