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 2003 BMW X5 (RE03 DZM) between March 2006 and August 2018.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 13 August 2018 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Windscreen (9 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Bodywork (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 22 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: “Oil leaking excessively from engine (8.4.1 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”.
