MOT Analysis

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

34 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Mitsubishi Gto (P223 POW) between April 2006 and June 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 14 failures.

Recorded failure items include: “Exhaust emissions likely to be affected by an exhaust leak front pipe (8.2.1.1 (b))”; “Emissions unable to be completed due to exhaust leak (8.2.2.2 (e))”; “Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (8.2.1.2 (c))”.
