MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 BMW X5 (PE55 KPU) between September 2008 and March 2022.

The record contains 14 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 04 March 2022 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: Brakes (14 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 16 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 Lower Suspension arm has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Front Lower Suspension arm has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”.
