MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Volkswagen Polo (V826 FLS) between October 2006 and July 2024.

The record contains 11 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 19 July 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (18 issues), Brakes (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Suspension (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 10 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: “Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)”; “Offside front brake binding (3.7.B.1)”; “Offside Rear Suspension component mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (2.4.A.3)”.
