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 2002 BMW 3 Series (DY02 CVF) between October 2006 and March 2019.

The record contains 12 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 08 March 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (4 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Brakes (2 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 7 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 Rear Direction indicators incorrect colour (1.4.A.2f)”; “Nearside Front Front suspension has excessive movement at a wishbone pin or bush Rear (2.5.A.1c)”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”.
