MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2007 BMW 520 (X400 TAM) between August 2010 and January 2020.

The record contains 8 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 21 January 2020 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 (7 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
