MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Mini Mini (SH52 AOT) between November 2005 and July 2022.

The record contains 17 passes and 14 failures.

The most recent test on 20 July 2022 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (46 issues), Brakes (33 issues), Suspension (19 issues), Tyres (17 issues), Steering (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 92 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: “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Power steering malfunctioning on full lock power steering stops working (2.1.5 (a))”; “Offside Front Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”.
