MOT Analysis

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

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Nissan Almera (YU52 VSL) between January 2006 and July 2016.

The record contains 11 passes and 1 failure.

The most recent test on 05 July 2016 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (9 issues), Windscreen (7 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 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: “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Offside Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)”; “Nearside Front position lamp(s) not working (1.1.A.3b)”.
