MOT Analysis

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

10 MOT tests are recorded for this 1990 Volkswagen Golf (H295 DST) between September 2005 and March 2010.

The record contains 5 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 10 March 2010 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (15 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Bodywork (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 10 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: “Driver's door cannot be opened from outside the vehicle (6.2.B.1b)”; “Driver's door cannot be opened from inside the vehicle (6.2.B.1b)”; “Exhaust mounting missing (7.1.1b)”.
