MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Kia Ceed (LB57 YMH) between February 2011 and January 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 27 January 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (12 issues), Steering (8 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 39 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: “Rear Registration plate does not conform to the specified requirements (0.1 (d))”; “Offside Front Steering linkage ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Rear Brake lever has insufficient reserve travel (1.1.2 (a))”.
