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 Ford Kuga (VO08 NJO) between July 2011 and May 2026.

The record contains 15 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 19 May 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (21 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
