MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Golf (AK55 FVR) between November 2008 and October 2022.

The record contains 14 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 07 October 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 30 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 less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”.
