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 2000 Volkswagen Polo (W583 PPG) between April 2006 and September 2019.

The record contains 14 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 19 September 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: Tyres (17 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Windscreen (10 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 41 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: “Offside Rear Lower Shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush (5.3.2 (c))”; “Nearside Rear Lower Shock absorbers has an excessively worn bush (5.3.2 (c))”; “Offside Front Lower Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn rear (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
