I know its not a corsa but I was hoping some1 could help...

My mum has just put her BMW through its 1st MOT and it failed on a cracked ball joint and sheared rear spring. The thing is the car is only 3 years old and has only covered 19000miles!!!

Just wondering how these could have happened because I personally think this is ridiculous and would liek my mum to stand her ground on this one and make BMW stump up!

The car is hardly ever driving as you can see 19000miles in 3 years and when it is driven it is on motorways mainly or down to the local supermarket 1mile away!

Any help greatly appreciated!
