MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Audi A3 (RA08 UAT) between November 2011 and October 2025.

The record contains 15 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 02 October 2025 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: Tyres (12 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Brakes (5 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Windscreen (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 Rear Brake disc significantly and obviously worn (1.1.14 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Parking (secondary brake) on a single line braking system has inadequate effort at a wheel (1.3.1 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn wishbone (5.3.4 (a) (i))”.
