MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 BMW 1 Series (CL05 AUS) between September 2015 and October 2024.

The record contains 11 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 01 October 2024 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: Tyres (9 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 16 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 Front Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Front Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Exhaust system insecure front exhaust flexi (6.1.2 (a))”.
