MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Mini Mini (Y31 JCW) between January 2006 and April 2024.

The record contains 18 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (28 issues), Suspension (10 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
