MOT Analysis

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

31 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volkswagen Golf (RF02 PZG) between November 2005 and July 2024.

The record contains 20 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 25 July 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (25 issues), Suspension (21 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Steering (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 60 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: “Anti-lock braking system warning lamp indicates an ABS fault (1.6 (b))”; “Offside Rear coil spring broken (2.4.C.1a)”; “Nearside Front Inner Steering rack gaiter insecure (2.2.D.2d)”.
