MOT Analysis

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

4 MOT tests are recorded for this 1994 Volkswagen Golf (M608 EDG) between March 2009 and July 2010.

The record contains 2 passes and 2 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (8 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Steering (2 issues), Suspension (2 issues), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)”; “Centre Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (3.6.B.2c)”; “Nearside Outer Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (3.6.B.2c)”.
