MOT Analysis

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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Kia Picanto (SY08 UBL) between March 2011 and June 2026.

The record contains 16 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 18 June 2026 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: Brakes (28 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Lighting (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 53 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 Outer Suspension component mounting prescribed area so inadequately repaired that control of the vehicle is”; “Brake performance unable to be tested (1.2.1 (g))”; “Offside Front Brake pipe leaking on a hydraulic braking system Brake pipe burst due to being excessively corroded (1.1.”.
