MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Mini Mini (LB08 SMU) between May 2011 and November 2025.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 25 November 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: Windscreen (7 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 14 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 Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick Both sides (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”; “Nearside Headlamp aim too low (1.8)”; “Nearside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)”.
