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 1994 Rover Mini (M753 OPY) between May 2006 and July 2025.

The record contains 13 passes and 14 failures.

The most recent test on 12 July 2025 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (35 issues), Suspension (34 issues), Tyres (23 issues), Lighting (23 issues), Bodywork (17 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 99 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 Front Wheel bearing has excessive play (5.1.3 (a) (i))”; “Exhaust carbon monoxide content at idle exceeds manufacturer's specified limits (8.2.1.2 (b))”; “Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds manufacturer's specified limits (8.2.1.2 (a))”.
