MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Volvo 900 Series (P946 JEG) between September 2005 and October 2023.

The record contains 18 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 07 October 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (23 issues), Windscreen (17 issues), Brakes (12 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (11 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 78 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 Rear Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced Outer sill (7.1.1 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Brake hose excessively deteriorated (3.6.B.4d)”; “Rear registration plate deteriorated (6.3.1d)”.
