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

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (13 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
