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

The record contains 14 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (15 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
