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 1988 Toyota Hilux (E40 CTV) between May 2006 and May 2008.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 29 May 2008 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (8 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue), Lighting (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 4 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: “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Offside Rear Vehicle structure has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mountin”; “Brake linkage excessively corroded and seriously weakened (3.5.1e)”.
