MOT Analysis

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

7 MOT tests are recorded for this 1996 BMW 316 (N441 ERO) between May 2006 and June 2010.

The record contains 5 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 29 June 2010 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: Brakes (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Windscreen (1 issue), Tyres (1 issue), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 8 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 Front Suspension arm rubber mounting deteriorated resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2)”; “Offside Rear Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Front Exhaust system not adequately supported (7.1.1)”.
