Things to check
- Dec 2024 MOT failure — no defect details provided; this is a critical unexplained safety concern.
- 1.5L diesel engine — known for expensive head gasket and fuel pump failures, high repair costs.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Consistent, low annual mileage (9,251 mi/yr) — suggests light use and less wear.
- Valid MOT until December 2026 — no immediate retesting required.
- No dangerous defects recorded — all failures were minor or advisory.
