MOT Analysis

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

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Fiesta (AO08 OPU) between January 2011 and June 2019.

The record contains 9 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 21 June 2019 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
