MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Mercedes-Benz Clk (V601 ABW) between December 2005 and June 2022.

The record contains 13 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 22 June 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (19 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Tyres (1 issue), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 23 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: “Nearside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Offside Headlamp aim too high (4.1.2 (a))”.
