MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 1986 Volkswagen Transporter (D712 EYO) between May 2006 and August 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 19 August 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (11 issues), Suspension (10 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Bodywork (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 36 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: “Emissions unable to be completed due to oil leak (8.2.1.2 (d))”; “Oil leaking excessively from engine (8.4.1 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced ”.
