MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 1989 Peugeot 205 (F454 NTL) between January 2006 and December 2025.

The record contains 16 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 17 December 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (60 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Steering (7 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 64 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 Parking brake inoperative on one side (1.4.1 (a))”; “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.
