MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Mini Mini (LB08 FVN) between June 2011 and July 2025.

The record contains 15 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 07 July 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues), Windscreen (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 23 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 Service brake has no recorded effort at a wheel (1.2.1 (a) (ii))”; “Front Brakes imbalanced across an axle by more than 50% (1.2.1 (b) (ii))”; “Service brake efficiency below requirements (1.2.2 (a) (i))”.
