MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Volkswagen Transporter (P503 GRR) between March 2006 and September 2026.

The record contains 21 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (11 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Lighting (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
