MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Transit Connect (GV08 OEJ) between June 2011 and August 2021.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 24 August 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 (10 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Bodywork (4 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 26 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: “Nearside Rear Suspension spring mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded outer sill (2.4.A.3)”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”; “Centre Stop lamp not working (1.2.1b)”.
