MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Ford Mondeo (SA54 MLE) between October 2010 and July 2017.

The record contains 8 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 19 July 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (18 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues), Tyres (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 27 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 rear parking brake recording little or no effort (3.7.B.6a)”; “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content at idle excessive (7.3.D.4)”; “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)”.
