MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2012 Volkswagen Polo (SH62 AHF) between October 2015 and April 2026.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 30 April 2026 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 (8 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Windscreen (5 issues), Suspension (5 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: “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Offside Headlamp not working on dipped beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
