MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 BMW X5 (J999 CEC) between November 2005 and November 2019.

The record contains 14 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 25 November 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Windscreen (7 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 23 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 Other passenger door cannot be opened from outside the vehicle (6.2.3 (a))”; “Nearside Front Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (6.1.7”; “Offside Front Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”.
