MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Volvo S40 (RN04 XUW) between July 2007 and June 2020.

The record contains 14 passes and 7 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (14 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
