MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Kia Ceed (BN08 KPU) between February 2011 and October 2021.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 19 October 2021 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 (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 12 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 Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Inner Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”.
