MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Kia Rio (DS08 YPE) between July 2011 and September 2022.

The record contains 13 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 27 September 2022 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: Brakes (11 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Bodywork (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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: “Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)”; “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Offside Rear rear brake binding (3.7.B.1)”.
