Pre-MOT Inspection Checklist for Taiwan Golden Bee Esa Owners

These checks follow this Taiwan Golden Bee Esa's own most-recorded failure strings, starting with what a tester is most likely to flag on a Taiwan Golden Bee Esa.

  • the lights — “registration plate lamp(s) inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps”

    Switch everything on and walk round the car: both headlamps on dip and main, every indicator, both brake lights, reverse, fog and the two number-plate lamps. A bulb is a few pounds and a five-minute job.

  • the suspension joints — “ball joint excessively worn”

    With the car parked on level ground, rock the top of each front wheel in and out while someone watches the suspension arm. Clunks, or rubber boots split and greasy, are what testers record here.

  • the number plates — “registration plates missing”

    Check both plates are present, legible and correctly spaced, with the postcode of the supplier and the BS AU 145e mark. A private plate in the wrong style is a fail before the car is even looked at.

Derived from the DVSA failure strings testers recorded for the Taiwan Golden Bee Esa. A check that finds nothing means the item is likely fine, not that the test is guaranteed.
