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 1968 Austin A60 (OBW 857F) between July 2006 and July 2026.

The record contains 21 passes and 3 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (5 issues), Brakes (2 issues), Steering (1 issue), Lighting (1 issue), Bodywork (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
