MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Volkswagen Transporter (P357 DPC) between May 2006 and June 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 12 June 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (43 issues), Tyres (26 issues), Lighting (25 issues), Suspension (18 issues), Steering (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 89 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 Brake hose excessively deteriorated (1.1.12 (b) (ii))”; “Exhaust gas recirculation valve missing where one was fitted as standard (8.2.2.1 (a))”; “Offside Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”.
