MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Mini Mini (YA57 DZS) between October 2023 and November 2025.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.
