MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Volkswagen Polo (YM52 AFK) between June 2022 and July 2024.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 09 July 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (8 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Bodywork (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 16 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: “Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm both side (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Front Headlamp not working on dipped beam (4.1.1 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Windscreen washer jets misaligned and not providing sufficient fluid to the windscreen leaking (3.5 (a))”.
