MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Volvo V50 (YT06 XPL) between April 2009 and January 2022.

The record contains 16 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 31 January 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (11 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 25 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: “Offside Front Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Offside Front Inner Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”.
