MOT Analysis

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

8 MOT tests are recorded for this 2007 Volkswagen Passat (BL57 VZX) between March 2011 and March 2015.

The record contains 5 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 28 March 2015 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (5 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 12 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: “Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)”; “Nearside Rear coil spring broken (2.4.C.1a)”; “Offside Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)”.
