This often occurs soon before to a rupture or fracture.They deteriorate inside; the MOT is only a superficial inspection. Consequently, I regret to assert that a recent MOT offers no assurance. I will paint my item (212 2010) and apply rustproofing to the inside and outside as thoroughly as possible. I own an inexpensive borescope that connects to my phone, which I will use to inspect the inside prior to applying the rust inhibitor, ensuring it is sound and robust. It seems to be in excellent condition externally and has been a vehicle from Kent/Sussex throughout its existence, with little exposure to winter salt in this region.I am optimistic that she will be reliable. I will not be doing the task for a few weeks; however, I will report my results and, possibly, provide photographs of the inside of the frame, contingent upon image quality.
