MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2011 BMW 3 Series (NA11 VFF) between May 2014 and November 2024.

The record contains 11 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 21 November 2024 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 (16 issues), Suspension (14 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Steering (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 30 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: “Brake pad(s) worn down to wear indicator (1.1.13 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Nearside Front Tyre has a bulge, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
