MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Daewoo Matiz (WV51 ARF) between August 2005 and June 2015.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 27 June 2015 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (8 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 14 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 Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (2.4.A.3)”; “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (2.4.A.3)”.
