MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volvo V40 (KF52 VVX) between November 2005 and February 2014.

The record contains 9 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 21 February 2014 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: Lighting (17 issues), Brakes (15 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Offside Rear rear parking brake recording little or no effort (3.7.B.6a)”; “Nearside Rear rear parking brake recording little or no effort (3.7.B.6a)”.
