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 2000 Ford Mondeo (W281 LRY) between September 2006 and September 2015.

The record contains 9 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 11 September 2015 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (21 issues), Brakes (17 issues), Lighting (17 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 32 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 Electrical wiring insecure abs wire (1.9.2a)”; “Nearside Rear Electrical wiring insecure abs wire (1.9.2a)”; “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded of outer sill (2.4.A.3)”.
