MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 1981 Triumph Tr 7 (SEH 35W) between April 2006 and April 2009.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 15 April 2009 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (10 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Bodywork (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 8 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 Outer Body or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mounting”; “Offside Rear Suspension arm attachment bracket/mounting corroded and its strength is seriously reduced (2.4.G.1)”; “Nearside Rear Suspension arm attachment bracket/mounting corroded and its strength is seriously reduced (2.4.G.1)”.
