MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Ford Galaxy (RK52 AFU) between February 2023 and January 2025.

The record contains 2 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 13 January 2025 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Steering (3 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 10 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: “Offside Front Vehicle structure strengthening plate or fastening so insecure that structural rigidity is seriously reduc”; “Front Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases exhaust manifold (6.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Steering rack gaiter missing or no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (2.1.3 (g) (ii))”.
