MOT Analysis

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

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 1985 BMW 3 Series (B448 MPM) between March 2006 and June 2023.

The record contains 7 passes and 7 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (29 issues), Lighting (19 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Steering rack gaiter missing or no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (2.1.3 (g) (ii))”; “Offside Headlamp aim too high (4.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Headlamp not working on dipped beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”.
