MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Audi A3 (BN56 FVC) between October 2009 and September 2021.

The record contains 13 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 10 September 2021 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 (11 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 29 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 Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Nearside Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (6.1.7”.
