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 1995 Volkswagen Transporter (M338 PJW) between August 2006 and October 2026.

The record contains 19 passes and 13 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (72 issues), Lighting (35 issues), Steering (25 issues), Suspension (21 issues), Tyres (13 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 118 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: “Nearside Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced (7.1.1 (a) (i))”; “Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Steering rack gaiter missing or no longer prevents the ingress of dirt clip missing (2.1.3 (g) (ii))”.
