MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 1993 Ford Escort (L202 MMV) between September 2006 and August 2021.

The record contains 14 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (10 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
