MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Rover 416 (R67 FCE) between August 2006 and August 2018.

The record contains 13 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 02 August 2018 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (17 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Steering (5 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 Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Upper Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
