MOT Analysis

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

14 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford S-Max (GN08 OJM) between May 2011 and November 2018.

The record contains 8 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 16 November 2018 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (14 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Suspension (11 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 40 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: “Offside Front Shock absorber has a serious fluid leak (2.7.3)”; “Offside Rear Trailing arm rubber bush bonding deteriorated resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Rear Trailing arm rubber bush bonding deteriorated resulting in excessive movement (2.4.G.2)”.
