MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Nissan Micra (FL51 XEV) between September 2005 and July 2017.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 18 July 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 19 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: “Offside Front Obligatory mirror insecure (8.1.1)”; “Nearside Front Front suspension ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress of d”; “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (2.4.A.3)”.
