MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Vauxhall Vectra (DY08 FHS) between February 2011 and October 2024.

The record contains 13 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 04 October 2024 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 (15 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Windscreen (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 40 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: “Brake pedal has insufficient reserve travel (1.1.2 (a))”; “Front passenger door cannot be opened from inside the vehicle (6.2.3 (a))”; “Offside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
