MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 BMW 120 (TH06 TDH) between November 2012 and February 2026.

The record contains 17 passes and 3 failures.
