MOT Analysis

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

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Vauxhall Astra (YJ52 VNT) between August 2006 and December 2014.

The record contains 9 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 10 December 2014 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (10 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Suspension (3 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 17 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: “Rear rear brake binding (3.7.B.1)”; “Battery insecure (1.9.1)”; “Nearside Rear wheel bearing has excessive play (2.6.2)”.
