MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Volkswagen Golf (GY12 HCK) between May 2015 and November 2025.

The record contains 11 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 11 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (5 issues), Tyres (2 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Windscreen (1 issue), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Central Exhaust system insecure (6.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Headlamp has a product on the lens so that the light output is severely reduced (4.1.4 (b))”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn Lower Rear (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
