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 2001 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter (MU51 WCT) between September 2005 and September 2023.

The record contains 15 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 02 September 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 (30 issues), Lighting (23 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Bodywork (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 42 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 Rear Direction indicator incorrect colour (4.4.3 (a))”; “Offside Side repeater not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”; “Hazard warning switch inoperative (4.4.2 (a) (ii))”.
