MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Volkswagen Beetle (Y673 PWC) between March 2006 and November 2017.

The record contains 14 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 28 November 2017 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: Tyres (12 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues), Brakes (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 9 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 Direction indicator incorrect colour (1.4.A.2f)”; “Nearside Front Direction indicator incorrect colour (1.4.A.2f)”; “Nearside Front Front position lamp(s) not working (1.1.A.3b)”.
