MOT Analysis

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

10 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Ka (FV08 VGP) between June 2011 and August 2018.

The record contains 8 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 16 August 2018 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: Tyres (3 issues), Brakes (2 issues), Lighting (2 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 4 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 Tyre(s) incorrect because different size tyres are fitted on the same axle. (4.1.A.1a)”; “Offside Stop lamp not working (1.2.1b)”; “Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (8.2.3)”.
