Things to check

  • Emissions system advisories (Aug 2018, 2019, 2020, 2022) are a recurring concern, suggesting potential DPF issues.
  • Tyre advisories (Aug 2019, 2020, 2025) and exhaust advisories (Aug 2019, 2020) show a pattern of neglected wear items.
  • The 2019 failure for a wiper, though minor, was immediately followed by a retest pass, suggesting a quick fix.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 6,926 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
