MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 1991 Rover 216 (H208 EUE) between March 2006 and February 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 28 February 2013 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 (14 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Windscreen (7 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 22 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 Rear Upper Tie bar/rod rubber mounting deteriorated resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2)”; “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (2.4.A.3)”; “Offside Rear Tyre has ply or cords exposed (4.1.D.1b)”.
