MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Volkswagen Polo (YY55 KZB) between April 2009 and November 2021.

The record contains 12 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 27 November 2021 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (23 issues), Brakes (17 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (8 issues), Suspension (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 52 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: “Rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle (1.2.1 (b) (i))”; “Offside Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect Lens cloudy. (4.1.2 (c))”; “Nearside Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect Lens cloudy. (4.1.2 (c))”.
