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 2009 Skoda Octavia (YD09 DVT) between March 2012 and February 2024.

The record contains 12 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 14 February 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (13 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Suspension (2 issues), Steering (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 23 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 Rear Service brake excessively binding (1.2.1 (f))”; “Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced Near s”.
