MOT Analysis

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

27 MOT tests are recorded for this 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190 E (H445 HRL) between August 2005 and August 2023.

The record contains 19 passes and 8 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (39 issues), Lighting (37 issues), Suspension (23 issues), Bodywork (11 issues), Tyres (9 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 137 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 Lower Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced sill (7.1.1 (a) (i)”; “Nearside Rear Subframe mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength rear sil”; “Offside Rear Direction indicator not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”.
