MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Toyota Land Cruiser (V156 FAW) between October 2006 and December 2023.

The record contains 17 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 11 December 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: Lighting (65 issues), Suspension (60 issues), Tyres (21 issues), Bodywork (18 issues), Windscreen (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 169 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: “Central Rear Vehicle structure or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of a bod”; “Offside Integral body structure or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of a bo”; “Nearside Integral body structure or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of a b”.
