MOT Analysis

Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Ford Ka (DY51 FTN) between August 2005 and October 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 23 October 2013 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (24 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Steering (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 29 advisory notices are recorded. Advisories flag items that passed but may need attention before the next test; they are not evidence of how well the vehicle has been serviced.

Recorded failure items include: “Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)”; “Nearside Front Power steering pipe(s) or hose(s) fouling other parts of the vehicle (2.3.2)”; “Nearside Rear Vehicle structure has excessive corrosion which adversely affects braking or steering (6.1.A.1)”.
