MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Volkswagen Beetle (VX03 TYW) between February 2006 and June 2026.

The record contains 21 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 30 June 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 (27 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Suspension (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 44 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 fluctuating (1.2.1 (e))”; “Offside Rear Brake disc in such a condition that it is seriously weakened (1.1.14 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Front Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (5.2.3 (d) (i))”.
