MOT Analysis

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

27 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 BMW 5 Series (MB04 CSZ) between July 2007 and December 2025.

The record contains 19 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 11 December 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Steering (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: “Front Driver's view of the road through the swept area of the windscreen significantly affected by an obstruction (3.1 ”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Supplementary restraint system warning lamp indicates a fault (7.1.6 (a))”.
