MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Vauxhall Astra (BK08 RYX) between April 2011 and February 2024.

The record contains 14 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 02 February 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 9 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Lighting (15 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Windscreen (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 26 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: “Windscreen washer not working (3.5 (a))”; “Nearside Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”; “Offside Front Position lamp not working (4.2.1 (a) (ii))”.
