MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 BMW 3 Series (W114 LJF) between October 2006 and December 2014.

The record contains 9 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 31 December 2014 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: Brakes (19 issues), Suspension (17 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 5 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 (3.7.B.7)”; “Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover excessively damaged so that it no longer prevents the ingress”.
