MOT Analysis

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

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (17 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Windscreen (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
