MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Volkswagen Lt (DM52 BAM) between July 2007 and February 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 19 February 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: Brakes (11 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Suspension (1 issue), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 17 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: “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”; “Service brake efficiency below requirements (1.2.2 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii))”.
