MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Audi A3 (VF57 FHH) between January 2011 and May 2024.

The record contains 15 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 15 May 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (15 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues), Brakes (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 17 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 Front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (5.3.4 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Nearside Rear Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”.
