MOT Analysis

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

6 MOT tests are recorded for this 1996 Nissan Primera (N437 MVL) between July 2006 and January 2009.

The record contains 3 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 31 January 2009 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (6 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Lighting (1 issue), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 4 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 Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g)”.
