MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Toyota Rav4 (R141 CVF) between July 2006 and January 2022.

The record contains 15 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 20 January 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (5 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Lighting (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 13 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: “Fuel cap/sealing device missing (6.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Subframe mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength (5.3.6 ”; “Brake pipe at imminent risk of failure or fracture Front to rear (1.1.11 (a))”.
