MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Audi A3 (SJ02 VVF) between July 2006 and December 2019.

The record contains 14 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 07 December 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (24 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 31 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: “Front Service brake excessively fluctuating (1.2.1 (e))”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm attachment bracket/mounting damaged and seriously weakened Balljoint bolt broken (5.”; “Offside Front Lower Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
