MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2007 BMW 525 (M15 FCH) between May 2010 and June 2026.

The record contains 19 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 03 June 2026 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: Brakes (10 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Steering (7 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 35 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: “Nearside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)”; “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g)”.
