MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Suzuki Jimny (SM54 BYR) between November 2007 and October 2021.

The record contains 14 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 19 October 2021 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (30 issues), Suspension (15 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Bodywork (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 42 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 Front Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced behind”; “Offside Rear Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced in rear”; “Offside Rear Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced belt mount in rear wheel a”.
