MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 1994 Nissan Micra (L517 DOD) between October 2021 and April 2024.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 22 April 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (13 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Bodywork (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 23 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: “Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced front cross me”; “Nearside Rear Brake hose excessively deteriorated (1.1.12 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Front Wheel bearing has excessive play (5.1.3 (a) (i))”.
