MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Volkswagen Polo (YR56 OJM) between September 2009 and September 2026.

The record contains 18 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 14 September 2026 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 (12 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Steering (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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: “Brake lever has insufficient reserve travel (1.1.2 (a))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”; “Nearside Front Headlamp aim too high (4.1.2 (a))”.
