MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Toyota Hilux (R272 ENP) between January 2007 and January 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 26 January 2026 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 (25 issues), Brakes (15 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Steering (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 73 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: “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage fractured (5.3.3 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Rear fog lamp not working (4.5.1 (a) (ii))”; “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”.
