MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 1990 Mercedes-Benz 190 E (H445 JLE) between July 2005 and September 2021.

The record contains 15 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 17 September 2021 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 (22 issues), Suspension (18 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Bodywork (10 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 76 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: “Exhaust system insecure rear exhaust rubbers badly worn (6.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Inner Steering linkage ball joint has excessive play tie bar (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Offside Front Brake hose excessively deteriorated (1.1.12 (b) (ii))”.
