MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Mercedes-Benz E (LBZ 7455) between January 2006 and July 2022.

The record contains 17 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 27 July 2022 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 (15 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (12 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Suspension (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 37 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: “Offside Rear Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim too high (4.1.2 (a))”; “Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds manufacturer's specified limits (8.2.1.2 (a))”.
