MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Volkswagen Golf (OU03 FHA) between June 2006 and November 2020.

The record contains 15 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 24 November 2020 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (14 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Windscreen (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 41 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 Wheel bearing has excessive play (5.1.3 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim beam image obviously incorrect (1.8.A.1b)”; “Offside Front Seat belt damaged sufficient to significantly weakened the webbing (5.2.2a)”.
