The future of 306oc

[JTaylor2005]

So I have been a bit cheeky and looked up the MOT history of the car on the government website. (Forgot you would do that)


Here's what we are dealing with all! 

• Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)
  
  
• Nearside Front Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (3.6.B.4e)
  
  
• Offside Front Mechanical brake component has restricted free movement (3.5.1k)
  
  
• Offside Front Outer Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt etc (2.5.C.1a)
  
  
• Offside Front Inner Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt etc (2.5.C.1a)
  
  
• Offside Front Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (3.6.B.4e)
  
  
• Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded sill (2.4.A.3)
  
  
• Nearside Rear Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (3.6.B.4e)
  
  
• Offside Rear Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (3.6.B.4e)
  
  
• Front Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)
  
  
• Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)
  
  
• Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 2 (3.7.B.5b)
  

Lower ball joint has 3 bolts that hold it to the wishbone. These can be bought for £10 each.

Brakes being restricted movement sounds like they just need a good clean up and re-grease most likely.

CV Joint covers can be bought for about £8 if you can find them for your car! I'm struggling.

The rest would need some proper working on. Especially the rusty suspension mounting area and the brake pipe corrosion.
