MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Vauxhall Corsa (SX02 ABV) between March 2006 and August 2017.

The record contains 11 passes and 13 failures.

The most recent test on 21 August 2017 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 13 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (45 issues), Lighting (22 issues), Suspension (13 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (10 issues), Windscreen (9 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 56 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 below requirements (3.7.B.7)”; “Emissions not tested (7.3.A.1)”; “Brake pipe excessively corroded Front to rear (3.6.B.2c)”.
