MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Ford Transit (SW08 HWD) between July 2011 and July 2025.

The record contains 14 passes and 10 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (36 issues), Lighting (30 issues), Windscreen (18 issues), Tyres (16 issues), Suspension (11 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
