MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Mitsubishi L200 Double Cab (S741 FFE) between November 2005 and November 2021.

The record contains 16 passes and 12 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Bodywork (21 issues), Suspension (19 issues), Lighting (16 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 45 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 Rear Rear reflector defective or damaged by more than 50% of the reflecting surface (4.8.1 (a) (ii))”; “Oil leaking excessively from engine (8.4.1 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Upper Leaf spring shackle pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
