MOT Analysis

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

29 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Volkswagen Golf (Y513 CGC) between November 2006 and November 2025.

The record contains 21 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 08 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (13 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Brakes (8 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 36 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 Front Macpherson strut top bush or bearing has excessive wear or free play (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Steering rack gaiter missing or no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (2.1.3 (g) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Stop lamp(s) not working (4.3.1 (a) (ii))”.
