MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Volkswagen Golf (SF51 CFO) between August 2006 and July 2016.

The record contains 11 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 29 July 2016 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: Tyres (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 10 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: “Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (7.1.2)”; “Offside rear brake recording little or no effort (3.7.B.5a)”; “Anti-lock braking system warning lamp indicates an ABS fault (3.4.1c)”.
