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 15 passes and 11 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (26 issues), Brakes (17 issues), Lighting (16 issues), Bodywork (6 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
