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

Recorded failure items include: “Central Prop shaft joint excessively worn main front to rear prop-shaft, front universal joint attached to the central p”; “Offside Front Wheel bearing has excessive play (5.1.3 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps offside bulb in registration”.
