MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 1986 Audi 80 (C656 LTU) between February 2006 and April 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 28 April 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (39 issues), Brakes (34 issues), Suspension (28 issues), Bodywork (20 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (15 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 96 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 Wheel bearing play so excessive it is likely to break up (5.1.3 (a) (ii))”; “Exhaust system insecure backbox (6.1.2 (a))”; “Front Windscreen washer not working (3.5 (a))”.
