MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 BMW 5 Series (CW04 WAY) between August 2015 and August 2026.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 27 August 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (10 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Bodywork (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 13 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: “Exhaust emissions exceed manufacturer's specified limit (8.2.2.2 (a))”; “Offside Headlamp levelling device inoperative (4.1.5 (a))”; “Offside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
