MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2009 Vauxhall Astra (KU09 UXE) between March 2012 and March 2023.

The record contains 11 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 22 March 2023 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 5 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (17 issues), Tyres (12 issues), Suspension (9 issues), Lighting (6 issues), Bodywork (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.
