FY02 EYU MOT History
Interpretation generated from the recorded test data above — not an official DVSA statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.
31 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volkswagen Golf (FY02 EYU) between April 2006 and June 2024.
The record contains 19 passes and 12 failures.
The most recent test on 14 June 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 12 failures that buyers may want to investigate.
Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (38 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Suspension (15 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Windscreen (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
In total 64 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 Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”; “Nearside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”; “Nearside Brake pipe excessively corroded front to rear at rear (1.1.11 (c))”.
