MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Audi A3 (OY52 VNW) between November 2005 and March 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 30 March 2024 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: Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Windscreen (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 43 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 Rear Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii))”; “Emissions unable to be completed (8.2.2.2 (e))”; “Rear Exhaust emissions likely to be affected by an exhaust leak middle box (8.2.1.1 (b))”.
