MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Saab 9-3 (AR04 ART) between November 2023 and November 2025.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 10 November 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (9 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 11 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: “Front Inner Brake disc significantly and obviously worn both-sides (1.1.14 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
