MOT Analysis

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

34 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Ford Transit (Y978 CDA) between February 2006 and May 2024.

The record contains 18 passes and 16 failures.

The most recent test on 22 May 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 16 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (44 issues), Brakes (27 issues), Tyres (27 issues), Suspension (17 issues), Bodywork (15 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 79 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 Front Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Headlamp levelling device inoperative (4.1.5 (a))”; “Offside Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”.
