MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Toyota Auris (FM08 GWC) between July 2011 and August 2018.

The record contains 8 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 10 August 2018 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (7 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Windscreen (1 issue), Suspension (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
