MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Mercedes-Benz A-Class (YP09 VSM) between May 2012 and January 2026.

The record contains 14 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 22 January 2026 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (36 issues), Suspension (14 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 59 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: “Supplementary restraint system warning lamp indicates a fault (7.1.6 (a))”; “Offside Rear Shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush (5.3.2 (c))”; “Nearside Rear Shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush (5.3.2 (c))”.
