MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Volkswagen Golf (Y82 UKN) between June 2005 and March 2017.

The record contains 9 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 24 March 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Steering (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 8 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: “Nearside Body has a projection caused by damage mirror (6.1.C.1)”; “Offside Inner Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Offside Front Suspension arm has excessive play in a pin/bush rear most (2.4.G.2)”.
