MOT Analysis

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

2 MOT tests are recorded for this 1992 Mazda Mx-5 (SIB 3071) between September 2021 and September 2021.

The record contains 1 pass and 1 failure.

The most recent test on 23 September 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Windscreen (1 issue), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 4 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: “Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Front Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (8.2.1.2 (c))”.
