MOT Analysis

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

27 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Mercedes-Benz Vito (S338 DMR) between August 2006 and August 2022.

The record contains 17 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 25 August 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (47 issues), Lighting (20 issues), Suspension (15 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Bodywork (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 108 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 (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Service brake efficiency below requirements (1.2.2 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Subframe mounting prescribed area is corroded to the extent that control of the vehicle is likely to be ad”.
