MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 BMW 3 Series (S44 VAE) between September 2023 and September 2025.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 09 September 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (8 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Brakes (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 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: “Nearside Rear Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure torn to cords on inner sidewall ”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm insecure and impairing directional stability nut & bolt loose on sub-frame (rear arm”; “Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps (4.7.1 (b) (ii))”.
