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 2004 BMW 530 (ET53 VRR) between January 2007 and October 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 31 October 2025 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 (20 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Suspension (13 issues), Windscreen (11 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 63 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: “Nearside Front position lamp(s) has less than 50% of the light sources illuminating (1.1.A.3b)”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm has excessive play in a pin/bush (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover insecure so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (2.4.G.2)”.
