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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Mercedes A-Class (X821 GLK) between March 2006 and March 2018.

The record contains 13 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (22 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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.
