MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Audi A3 (YF08 AEW) between June 2011 and March 2024.

The record contains 14 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 16 March 2024 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 (12 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Bodywork (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 38 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 Outer Integral body structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced ”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.
