MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Kia Ceed (DS12 EXN) between February 2023 and March 2026.

The record contains 4 passes and 1 failure.

The most recent test on 31 March 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (4 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Steering (3 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 14 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: “Nearside Side repeater not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Parking brake inoperative on one side (1.4.1 (a))”; “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”.
