MOT Analysis

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

10 MOT tests are recorded for this 1972 Jensen Interceptor (OPF 277L) between July 2005 and July 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 02 July 2013 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 (5 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Steering (3 issues), Tyres (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 6 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: “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Nearside Steering rack gaiter insecure (2.2.D.2d)”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt”.
