This car's MOT history raises significant concerns. There have been multiple major failures, including dangerous defects such as a worn ball joint and broken exhaust components. These issues indicate potential systemic problems that could compromise safety and reliability. Additionally, the vehicle shows a recurring pattern of advisories regarding suspension components and corrosion, suggesting that age-related wear is becoming more of a problem. The overall history does not inspire confidence, as the combination of dangerous faults and the frequency of major failures point to a car that may be unreliable and costly to maintain moving forward. Given the age of the vehicle, these issues are not likely to improve and could lead to expensive repairs.
