MOT Analysis

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

10 MOT tests are recorded for this 2001 Vauxhall Corsa (L70 LRS) between January 2006 and February 2011.

The record contains 6 passes and 4 failures.

The most recent test on 04 February 2011 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 4 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (6 issues), Suspension (5 issues), Tyres (3 issues), Brakes (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 8 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: “Centre Rear Exhaust has part of the system excessively deteriorated (7.1.1a)”; “Nearside Rear coil spring cracked (2.4.C.1a)”; “Offside Front coil spring cracked (2.4.C.1a)”.
