MOT Analysis

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 2005 Vauxhall Astra (KL55 NJN) between September 2008 and January 2022.

The record contains 14 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 28 January 2022 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 8 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (17 issues), Brakes (13 issues), Lighting (11 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Windscreen (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 20 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 Front Suspension arm pin or bush excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Coil spring fractured or broken (5.3.1 (b) (i))”; “Rear Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))”.
