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 2006 Vauxhall Astravan (BV56 UDS) between November 2009 and March 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 27 March 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (24 issues), Suspension (24 issues), Brakes (23 issues), Lighting (7 issues), Windscreen (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 68 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))”; “Brake lever has insufficient reserve travel (1.1.2 (a))”; “Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (3.5 (a))”.
