MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 BMW 3 Series (M3 ORH) between March 2024 and July 2026.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 29 July 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (10 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Steering (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 32 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: “Exhaust emissions exceed manufacturer's specified limit 1.62 (8.2.2.2 (a))”; “Nearside Rear Subframe mounting prescribed area excessively corroded significantly reducing structural strength (5.3.6 (”; “Nearside Side repeater light intensity significantly reduced (4.4.3 (a))”.
