MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Ford Transit (R774 BWS) between February 2006 and April 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 10 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (24 issues), Lighting (17 issues), Bodywork (14 issues), Brakes (13 issues), Suspension (11 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Inner Rear Tyre has ply or cords exposed (4.1.D.1b)”; “Front Tyre(s) is inadequate for the vehicles maximum permitted laden weight due to an incorrect load index (4.1.B.1b)”; “Offside Front Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is excessively corroded (5.2.6)”.
