Average for cars of the same age and mileage
Top failures
Wiper blade not clearing windscreen 3.19%
Wipers that do not clear the windscreen reduce visibility in rain, which is a safety risk, so replace them.
Registration plate lamp not working 2.08%
A dark number plate lamp makes the plate hard to read at night, which is illegal and must be fixed.
Brake pads worn below 1.5mm 1.86%
Pads worn below 1.5mm lose stopping power and can damage discs, so replacement is needed before the car is driven.
Stop lamp not working 1.33%
A failed stop lamp means drivers behind cannot see when you brake, a safety risk that must be fixed.
Diesel engine warning light faulty 1.01%
A lit or non-working engine warning light can hide faults, so diagnosis is needed before buying.
Windscreen washer fluid insufficient 1.01%
Washers are not supplying enough liquid, so the windscreen cannot be cleared properly, which is a safety issue.
Common advisories
Tyre worn close to legal limit (10.32%) · Brake pads wearing thin (10.11%) · Brake disc pitted or scored (4.36%) · Brake discs showing some wear (2.66%) · Tyre slightly damaged or cracking (2.39%) · Tyre worn close to legal limit (1.44%)
