MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Ldv Convoy (BU53 AFY) between November 2006 and March 2016.

The record contains 10 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 17 March 2016 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (23 issues), Brakes (20 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 31 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: “Steering box has relative movement between sector shaft and the drop arm as marked (2.2.B.1b)”; “Nearside Rear position lamp(s) insecure (1.1.A.3a)”; “Rear fog lamp not working (1.3.2b)”.
