MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Dodge Caliber (VK08 CEF) between March 2011 and October 2022.

The record contains 11 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 18 October 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (18 issues), Brakes (12 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Windscreen (4 issues), Steering (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 30 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 Inner Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm and outer (5.2.3 (e))”; “Nearside Front Inner Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm and outer (5.2.3 (e))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”.
