MOT Analysis

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

32 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Volkswagen Lt (LG54 YFR) between August 2007 and July 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 14 failures.

The most recent test on 13 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 14 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (33 issues), Lighting (18 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 27 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 below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Service brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.2.2 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Service brake has no recorded effort at a wheel Brake pipe burst. (1.2.1 (a) (ii))”.
