MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Ford Mondeo (R684 DHJ) between December 2005 and January 2015.

The record contains 9 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 30 January 2015 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 28 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 Shock absorber has a serious fluid leak (2.7.3)”; “Offside Outer Rear Body or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mou”; “Nearside Rear Body has a sharp edge caused by corrosion (6.1.C.1)”.
