MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Volkswagen Polo (RV58 HFF) between August 2011 and August 2026.

The record contains 16 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 18 August 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (11 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Brakes (6 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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: “Nearside Front Brake pad(s) worn down to wear indicator (1.1.13 (a) (i))”; “Front Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (6.1.2 (a))”; “Brake lever has insufficient reserve travel (1.1.2 (a))”.
