MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 1984 Volkswagen Caravelle (B651 MAD) between September 2005 and April 2024.

The record contains 17 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 11 April 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (15 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Tyres (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 7 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 Front Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Offside Track rod end ball joint dust cover excessively damaged or deteriorated so that it no longer prevents the ingres”; “Offside Front Outer Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is excessively corroded floor (5.2.6)”.
