MOT Analysis

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

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2000 Volkswagen Golf (W304 OSM) between May 2005 and July 2013.

The record contains 9 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 06 July 2013 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: Tyres (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (9 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 13 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: “Nearside Outer Body has a projection caused by corrosion (6.1.C.1)”; “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content at idle excessive (7.3.D.4)”; “Exhaust emissions hydrocarbon content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)”.
