MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 BMW 3 Series (EK52 CXU) between October 2006 and January 2016.

The record contains 10 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 15 January 2016 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Windscreen (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 16 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 Rear Shock absorber has a serious fluid leak (2.7.3)”; “Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (2.4.G”; “Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)”.
