MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Ford Fiesta (X521 GWH) between February 2006 and December 2020.

The record contains 16 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 17 December 2020 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: Brakes (13 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Bodywork (4 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Tyres (2 issues). 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: “Service brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Offside Front Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Offside Rear Body or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mountings”.
