MOT Analysis

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

9 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Saab 9-3 (M5 PAC) between July 2006 and July 2011.

The record contains 6 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 21 July 2011 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 9 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 Rear Tyre has a lump, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure (4.1.D.1b)”; “Parking brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Nearside rear parking brake recording little or no effort (3.7.B.6a)”.
