MOT Analysis

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

29 MOT tests are recorded for this 1996 Volkswagen Transporter (P904 DAU) between September 2006 and October 2025.

The record contains 19 passes and 10 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (22 issues), Bodywork (16 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 63 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 Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Emissions unable to be completed (8.2.2.2 (e))”; “Offside Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases 1st silencer broken off (6.1.2 (a))”.
