MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volvo V70 (RF52 WLH) between November 2005 and August 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 14 August 2013 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (21 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Suspension (2 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 16 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: “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage fractured (2.4.G.1)”; “Supplementary Restraint System warning lamp indicates a fault (5.4.2)”.
