MOT Analysis

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

32 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 BMW Z3 (T13 BEM) between February 2006 and September 2025.

The record contains 20 passes and 12 failures.

The most recent test on 18 September 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 12 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (31 issues), Windscreen (18 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 45 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 Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Emissions unable to be completed (8.2.1.2 (d))”; “Central Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”.
