MOT Analysis

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

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Kia Picanto (ST61 TWA) between February 2015 and June 2024.

The record contains 6 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 10 June 2024 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (34 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 35 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: “Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Anti-lock braking system warning lamp indicates an ABS fault both front abs ring damaged (1.6 (b))”.
