MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Volvo V70 (P575 HBW) between June 2005 and February 2022.

The record contains 14 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (10 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Suspension (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 25 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 Direction indicator not working (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Seat belt pretensioner deployed Pre-tensioner jammed (7.1.4 (a))”; “Offside Front Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (”.
