MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Toyota Avensis (ST56 ULV) between December 2009 and October 2021.

The record contains 13 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 18 October 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (20 issues), Brakes (12 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Bodywork (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 55 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 Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps (4.7.1 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Front Suspension arm corroded and seriously weakened (2.4.G.1)”.
