MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Volkswagen Polo (KU54 LBA) between August 2007 and May 2026.

The record contains 15 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 11 May 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (6 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
