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 2007 BMW 3 Series (CK07 ARU) between March 2010 and July 2026.

The record contains 17 passes and 2 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (2 issues), Brakes (2 issues), Suspension (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Front Suspension arm ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt rear ball joint (5.3.4 (b) (ii”.
