MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 1992 Mercedes-Benz Sl (J166 OFX) between June 2015 and May 2026.

The record contains 11 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 12 May 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (13 issues), Steering (4 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 17 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: “Steering box leaking to the extent that oil is dripping (2.1.1 (e) (ii))”; “Offside Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Shock absorbers has negligible damping effect (5.3.2 (d))”.
