MOT Analysis

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

11 MOT tests are recorded for this 1993 Ford Fiesta (L854 CTG) between September 2006 and July 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 3 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (6 issues), Steering (6 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
