The record contains 12 passes and 2 failures.

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