MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 1995 Mercedes E (N208 EFC) between September 2005 and October 2016.

The record contains 12 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 01 October 2016 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: Suspension (35 issues), Brakes (29 issues), Tyres (20 issues), Lighting (19 issues), Bodywork (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 92 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: “Front Fuel system component leaking (7.2.3)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar attachment bracket/mounting damaged and its strength is seriously reduced (2.4.G.1)”; “Rear Rear fog lamp not working (1.3.2b)”.
