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 2003 Mercedes E (KS53 AWC) between November 2006 and November 2016.

The record contains 10 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 22 November 2016 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (8 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Lighting (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 18 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 Tyre has ply or cords exposed (4.1.D.1b)”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dir”; “Side repeater missing (1.4.A.2b)”.
