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 2013 Volkswagen Golf (LO13 UDV) between May 2016 and June 2026.

The record contains 11 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 25 June 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: Suspension (15 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 44 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: “Nearside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Nearside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”.
