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 1998 Mitsubishi Shogun (R756 AUJ) between July 2006 and May 2023.

The record contains 16 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 30 May 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (48 issues), Suspension (44 issues), Lighting (22 issues), Bodywork (21 issues), Windscreen (10 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 115 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 Inner Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt”; “Registration plate lamp shows direct white light to the rear (1.1.C.1f)”; “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (2.4.A.3)”.
