MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 1989 Peugeot 205 (F494 BKA) between December 2005 and November 2025.

The record contains 21 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 12 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 13 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 fog lamp not working (4.5.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Brake pipe connection leaking on a hydraulic braking system (1.1.11 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”.
