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 2006 Volkswagen Polo (NU56 GKX) between August 2009 and October 2018.

The record contains 10 passes and 7 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (12 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Steering (8 issues), Suspension (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
