MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Ford Ka (MA03 HSL) between March 2006 and November 2022.

The record contains 18 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 14 November 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (12 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Bodywork (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 22 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: “Offside Front Lower Integral body structure or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within ”; “Front Integral body structure or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of a body”; “Offside Suspension arm rubber bush deteriorated resulting in excessive movement front (2.4.G.2)”.
