MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Volkswagen Golf (HD04 AFY) between May 2007 and February 2026.

The record contains 20 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 11 February 2026 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: Lighting (10 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (6 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 27 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 Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Tyre has a tear, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
