MOT Analysis

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

15 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Vauxhall Vectra (EF08 RYU) between July 2011 and November 2018.

The record contains 9 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 14 November 2018 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 (16 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Windscreen (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

Recorded failure items include: “Nearside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Supplementary restraint system warning lamp indicates a fault (7.1.6 (a))”.
