MOT Analysis

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

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 BMW 3 Series (MJ51 YTK) between April 2006 and March 2015.

The record contains 10 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 02 March 2015 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 25 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 Front Road wheel cracked (4.2.A.1a)”; “Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (3.5.1g)”; “Offside Front Suspension arm has excessive play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)”.
