MOT Analysis

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

10 MOT tests are recorded for this 1997 Peugeot 106 (R43 ABU) between October 2005 and April 2011.

The record contains 6 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 28 April 2011 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Tyres (2 issues), Windscreen (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: “Exhaust system not adequately supported (7.1.1)”; “Nearside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)”; “Nearside Front coil spring incomplete (2.4.C.1a)”.
