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 Mazda Bongo (S760 HCG) between June 2008 and October 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 11 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (22 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Bodywork (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 46 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: “Anti-roll bar linkage pin or bush excessively worn nearside and offside rear d bushes (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural stren”; “Offside Suspension component mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength IN”.
