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 Lotus Elan (M91 RPP) between February 2006 and May 2023.

The record contains 18 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 26 May 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (25 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Suspension (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 14 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: “Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 2 (1.2.1 (b) (i))”; “Electrical wiring insecure and connectors likely to become disconnected hanging insecure next to accelerator pedal (4.1”; “Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (3.5 (a))”.
