MOT Analysis

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

27 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Vauxhall Vectra (KC55 HCY) between November 2008 and March 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 25 March 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (18 issues), Suspension (15 issues), Lighting (15 issues), Tyres (11 issues), Steering (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 50 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: “Parking brake efficiency below requirements (1.4.2 (a) (i))”; “Offside Rear Shock absorbers has negligible damping effect (5.3.2 (d))”; “Offside Rear Brake hose ferrule excessively corroded (1.1.12 (f) (i))”.
