MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Fiat Coupe (P119 XHU) between June 2006 and November 2020.

The record contains 16 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 20 November 2020 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: Brakes (9 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Bodywork (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 18 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 Lower Front suspension has excessive movement at a suspension ball joint (2.5.A.1c)”; “Service brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Nearside Front coil spring fractured (2.4.C.1a)”.
