MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 1990 Volvo 700 Series (G661 DPH) between March 2007 and July 2021.

The record contains 15 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 28 July 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (22 issues), Brakes (21 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 77 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: “Nearside Front Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced floor (7.1.1 (a) (i))”; “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”; “Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases back box (6.1.2 (a))”.
