MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Saab 9-3 (LC58 EFF) between November 2011 and November 2021.

The record contains 11 passes and 6 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (13 issues), Tyres (13 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 25 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 Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Nearside Rear Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))”.
