MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 1996 Mazda Bongo (N782 HWP) between February 2006 and January 2023.

The record contains 17 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 11 January 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (30 issues), Suspension (21 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (9 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 64 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 Headlamp has a product on the lens so that the light output is severely reduced (4.1.4 (b))”; “Nearside Rear Outer Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural”; “Offside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”.
