MOT Analysis

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

17 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Volkswagen Fox (VK08 COU) between March 2011 and February 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 28 February 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (15 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 13 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 Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt ”; “Offside Front Upper Macpherson strut mounting likely to fail (5.3.3 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Front Brakes imbalanced across an axle BINDING. (1.2.1 (b) (i))”.
