MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Mini Mini (MF54 GYE) between December 2007 and February 2018.

The record contains 11 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 13 February 2018 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (24 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 53 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 Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (4.1.D.1b)”; “Offside Front Suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated resulting in excessive movement rear bush (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated resulting in excessive movement rear bush (2.4.G.2)”.
