MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Skoda Octavia (YY08 EWV) between May 2011 and June 2026.

The record contains 16 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 03 June 2026 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: Lighting (11 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Tyres (7 issues), Suspension (6 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 32 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 Headlamp insecure (4.1.1 (c))”; “Nearside Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”; “Nearside Rear Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”.
