MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Ford S-Max (GK56 XOC) between August 2009 and July 2026.

The record contains 17 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 01 July 2026 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: Suspension (17 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 54 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 Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”; “Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt nearside front (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”.
