MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Polo (SH55 OGN) between October 2008 and December 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 04 December 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (14 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 21 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 Rear Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (1.1.12 (f) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (1.1.12 (f) (i))”; “Offside Rear Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn rear swing arm bush (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
