MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Vauxhall Meriva (BN58 XMB) between November 2011 and February 2023.

The record contains 12 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 08 February 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (14 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Windscreen (8 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Lighting (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 28 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 (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Nearside Rear Parking brake inoperative on one side (1.4.1 (a))”; “Offside Front Brake pipe leaking on a hydraulic braking system (1.1.11 (b) (ii))”.
