MOT Analysis

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

30 MOT tests are recorded for this 2007 Kia Ceed (MJ57 VTO) between September 2010 and October 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 12 failures.

The most recent test on 14 October 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 12 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (31 issues), Tyres (22 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Brakes (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 58 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 Inner Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (”; “Battery insecure and likely to cause a short circuit (4.13 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”.
