MOT Analysis

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

13 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Saab 9-5 (KY55 YHT) between September 2008 and July 2016.

The record contains 8 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 25 July 2016 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: Lighting (5 issues), Windscreen (5 issues), Bodywork (5 issues), Brakes (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 22 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: “Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases (7.1.2)”; “Exhaust emissions Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (7.3.D.3)”; “Offside Brake pipe excessively corroded front to rear (3.6.B.2c)”.
