MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Mercedes Sprinter (M4 WPJ) between June 2011 and September 2019.

The record contains 9 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 25 September 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (13 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Windscreen (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 29 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))”; “Offside Rear Outline marker lamp showing white light to the rear (4.2.3 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Front Outline marker lamp not working (4.2.1 (a))”.
