MOT Analysis

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

The record contains 21 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 12 September 2026 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: Tyres (10 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
