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 2004 Vauxhall Astra (GY54 FWA) between August 2007 and November 2015.

The record contains 9 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 04 November 2015 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: Lighting (8 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Tyres (4 issues), Steering (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 10 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: “Nearside Outer Front constant velocity joint gaiter damaged to the extent that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt”; “Offside Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Front Anti-roll bar linkage has excessive play in a ball joint (2.4.G.2)”.
