MOT Analysis

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

4 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Renault Clio (DY05 VBP) between April 2022 and April 2024.

The record contains 3 passes and 1 failure.

The most recent test on 02 April 2024 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 (6 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Windscreen (1 issue), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 16 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: “Rear Exhaust system insecure rubber split (6.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively rubber split (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Front Inner Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”.
