Yes it is serious - you'll fail a WOF, and if you stop in a hurry you run the risk of putting themotor into the radiator.

Very easy to fix though. Brand new mounts are about $50+GST from Euro Italian and if you have a chain block or a decent jack to lift the motor, they are easy to replace.

BTW I assume you are talking about the rubber mounts, not the alloy arm attached to the block.
