MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volkswagen Golf (BJ52 NWM) between March 2006 and March 2022.

The record contains 17 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 18 March 2022 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: Brakes (24 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (14 issues), Windscreen (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 73 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 Front Driver's seat insecure (6.2.5 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Headlamp insecure (4.1.1 (c))”; “Nearside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”.
