MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 BMW 3 Series (V923 DLM) between January 2006 and July 2023.

The record contains 17 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 14 July 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (17 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Windscreen (12 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Steering (10 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 44 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: “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Rear fog lamp not working (4.5.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint worn to the extent there is a serious risk of detachment (2.1.3 (b) (ii))”.
