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 2006 Saab 9-3 (LF06 AFA) between February 2009 and January 2019.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 28 January 2019 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: Suspension (16 issues), Brakes (11 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Windscreen (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 33 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: “Brake performance not tested (1.2.1 (g))”; “Exhaust emissions exceed level of metered smoke for a turbo charged engine (8.2.2.2 (b))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”.
