MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Volkswagen Polo (BT58 ESO) between December 2011 and November 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 01 November 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (21 issues), Brakes (19 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
