MOT Analysis

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

27 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Ford Transit Connect (LC53 HOA) between November 2006 and September 2026.

The record contains 19 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 07 September 2026 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (42 issues), Lighting (18 issues), Suspension (18 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (9 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 75 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: “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”; “Service brake efficiency below requirements (1.2.2 (a) (i))”; “Rear Brake pipe leaking on a hydraulic braking system (1.1.11 (b) (ii))”.
