MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 1988 Mercedes-Benz 230 (F111 CWG) between October 2006 and August 2026.

The record contains 19 passes and 3 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (19 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 41 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 Rear rear brake binding (3.7.B.1)”; “Nearside Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g)”; “Nearside rear brake binding (3.7.B.1)”.
