EU02 APF MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 BMW 735 (EU02 APF) between May 2006 and September 2021.
The record contains 15 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (18 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 24 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 Upper Suspension arm ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Rear Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
