MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Polo (CX55 TXH) between August 2008 and February 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 03 February 2026 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 (12 issues), Brakes (12 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 31 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: “Front Position lamp not working Both (4.2.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Front Exhaust emissions likely to be affected by an exhaust leak Flexi (8.2.1.1 (b))”.
