MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 1996 Mazda Bongo (N322 FHL) between July 2006 and August 2025.

The record contains 14 passes and 12 failures.

The most recent test on 18 August 2025 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: Suspension (24 issues), Lighting (21 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Bodywork (9 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 35 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 Suspension arm corroded and seriously weakened (5.3.3 (b) (i))”; “Emissions not tested due to water leak (8.2.2.2 (e))”; “Brake performance not tested due to corrsion on front of vehicle (1.2.1 (g))”.
