The record contains 18 passes and 10 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Bodywork (16 issues), Tyres (13 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
