MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 1962 Rover 95 (817 RU) between November 2007 and August 2021.

The record contains 10 passes and 3 failures.
