MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 Ford Transit (W897 BVP) between January 2006 and January 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 8 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (44 issues), Brakes (34 issues), Tyres (25 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Steering (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
