MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2011 BMW 118 (RY56 DAV) between April 2023 and April 2025.

The record contains 2 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 30 April 2025 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 9 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: “Exhaust on a vehicle fitted with a diesel particulate filter emits visible smoke of any colour (8.2.2.2 (d))”; “Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively both front (3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Front Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”.
