MOT Analysis

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

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2015 Kia Carens (RK15 PYL) between October 2017 and November 2025.

The record contains 10 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 28 November 2025 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: Tyres (8 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Brakes (2 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 14 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 Inner Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Supplementary restraint system warning lamp indicates a fault (7.1.6 (a))”.
