MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 BMW 3 Series (EG04 HWH) between July 2007 and September 2017.

The record contains 13 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 27 September 2017 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: Suspension (8 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 15 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: “Brake hose excessively deteriorated both front (3.6.B.4d)”; “Nearside Rear Shock absorber has a serious fluid leak (2.7.3)”; “Nearside Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)”.
