MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volkswagen Golf (EY02 FEF) between February 2006 and November 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 22 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Windscreen (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 9 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: “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”.
