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 13 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (20 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Bodywork (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
