MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volkswagen Bora (MF52 XWA) between January 2006 and March 2016.

The record contains 11 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 15 March 2016 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (17 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Suspension arm has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)”; “Offside Front Windscreen has a sticker or other obstruction encroaching by more than 10mm within zone 'A' (8.3.1b)”.
