MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 BMW X5 (BT54 APY) between June 2007 and November 2024.

The record contains 18 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 04 November 2024 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: Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Steering (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 50 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 Lower Power steering component leaking PIPE (2.1.5 (a))”; “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”.
