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 1994 Rover 216 (L153 JJW) between May 2006 and September 2021.

The record contains 11 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (13 issues), Bodywork (8 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Lighting (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
