MOT Analysis

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

9 MOT tests are recorded for this 1991 Vauxhall Astra (J56 LHA) between March 2006 and April 2024.

The record contains 8 passes and 1 failure.

The most recent test on 13 April 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 1 failure that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (2 issues), Bodywork (1 issue), Brakes (1 issue), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
