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 Ford Ka (DV08 CLJ) between March 2011 and August 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (10 issues), Bodywork (9 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (8.2.1.2 (c))”; “Power steering pipe/hose excessively corroded (2.1.5 (g) (i))”; “Offside Seat belt anchorage prescribed area strength or continuity significantly reduced floor around seat fixing (7.1.1”.
