MOT Analysis

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

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Seat Ibiza (SM56 VZT) between November 2009 and December 2017.

The record contains 9 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 13 December 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (6 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 2 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 Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Offside Front Suspension arm has excessive play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)”.
