MOT Analysis

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

The record contains 7 passes and 4 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Inner Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm BOTH 215/55/16 (4.1.E.1)”; “Front coil spring broken BOTH (2.4.C.1a)”.
