MOT Analysis

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

10 MOT tests are recorded for this 1970 Volkswagen Type 2 (VDA 94H) between November 2013 and June 2025.

The record contains 6 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 13 June 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (12 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Suspension (1 issue), Steering (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 18 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: “Valve stem seriously damaged All tyre valves cracked/perished (5.2.3 (j))”; “Nearside Front Service brake effort inadequate at a wheel (1.2.1 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”.
