MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Golf (GY55 PCZ) between September 2008 and January 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 24 January 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (13 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 22 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 Front Upper Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Nearside Rear Outer Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Front Inner Brake disc significantly and obviously worn (1.1.14 (a) (i))”.
