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

The record contains 12 passes and 8 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (9 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Steering (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
