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 Volkswagen Transporter (WF08 OBN) between June 2011 and October 2023.

The record contains 13 passes and 10 failures.

The most recent test on 05 October 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 10 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Suspension (36 issues), Tyres (19 issues), Lighting (16 issues), Windscreen (5 issues), Brakes (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 85 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: “Parking brake efficiency less than 50% of the required value (1.4.2 (a) (ii))”; “Offside Rear Parking brake inoperative on one side possibly caliber faulty (1.4.1 (a))”; “Offside Front Outer Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot split or insecure, no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (”.
