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

The record contains 20 passes and 9 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (17 issues), Suspension (17 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Steering (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
