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 2005 BMW 3 Series (PX55 VPM) between September 2008 and September 2023.

The record contains 14 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 13 September 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 23 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 Position lamp with a multiple light source more than 1/2 not functioning (4.2.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”; “Offside Front Wheel bearing has excessive play (5.1.3 (a) (i))”.
