MOT Analysis

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

29 MOT tests are recorded for this 1994 Tvr Chimaera (M862 RKS) between March 2006 and June 2026.

The record contains 16 passes and 13 failures.

The most recent test on 10 June 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 13 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (38 issues), Lighting (20 issues), Suspension (13 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (9 issues), Windscreen (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 62 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: “Exhaust hydrocarbon content after 2nd fast idle exceeds default limits (8.2.1.2 (b))”; “Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (8.2.1.2 (c))”; “Exhaust carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle exceeds manufacturer's specified limits (8.2.1.2 (a))”.
