MOT Analysis

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

11 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Volkswagen Passat (CT03 APY) between July 2006 and January 2015.

The record contains 9 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 28 January 2015 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (6 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
