MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Nissan Primera (V311 GCU) between September 2005 and February 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 21 February 2022 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (17 issues), Suspension (14 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Bodywork (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Offside Front Upper Suspension arm ball joint likely to become detached (5.3.4 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is inadequately repaired (5.3.6 (a) (i))”.
