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

The record contains 12 passes and 9 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (31 issues), Suspension (22 issues), Lighting (19 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Windscreen (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
