MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Mini Mini (YF55 DXZ) between December 2008 and January 2023.

The record contains 15 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 03 January 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (23 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (9 issues), Windscreen (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 57 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: “Nearside Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Nearside Parking brake inoperative on one side (1.4.1 (a))”; “Nearside Front Wheel bearing rough when rotated (5.1.3 (b) (i))”.
