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 2003 Volkswagen Golf (LS03 FNV) between May 2006 and October 2020.

The record contains 16 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 14 October 2020 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 (13 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 37 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 Inner Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn rear bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Inner Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn rear bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.
