MOT Analysis

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

11 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Passat (SO54 VNE) between February 2008 and March 2014.

The record contains 8 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 29 March 2014 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (2 issues), Tyres (2 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 2 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 brake disc in such a condition that it is seriously weakened (3.5.1i)”; “Nearside Front Front constant velocity joint gaiter split (2.5.C.1a)”; “Nearside Front Side repeater excessively damaged so that it is not visible from a reasonable distance (1.4.A.2e)”.
