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 2005 Volvo Xc90 (LT55 YSL) between August 2008 and January 2022.

The record contains 16 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 22 January 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (16 issues), Brakes (15 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 42 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))”; “Nearside Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Nearside Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”.
