MOT Analysis

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

20 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Vauxhall Astra (V651 LJX) between October 2005 and July 2013.

The record contains 8 passes and 12 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (59 issues), Lighting (32 issues), Tyres (20 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (13 issues), Steering (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 29 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: “Brakes imbalanced across an axle (3.7.B.5b)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Offside Headlamp aim too low (1.8)”.
