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

The record contains 18 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 23 April 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.
