MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2007 BMW 3 Series (YH07 VBJ) between March 2010 and April 2026.

The record contains 15 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 21 April 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (19 issues), Tyres (18 issues), Brakes (7 issues), Lighting (5 issues), Bodywork (2 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: “Nearside Front Direction indicator not working Wing. (4.4.1 (a) (ii))”; “Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (3.5 (a))”; “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”.
