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

22 MOT tests are recorded for this 2003 Saab 9-5 (EU53 SYG) between November 2006 and May 2022.

The record contains 17 passes and 5 failures.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (22 issues), Suspension (13 issues), Tyres (10 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (9 issues), Lighting (5 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
