MOT Analysis

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

5 MOT tests are recorded for this 1993 Vauxhall Astra (L403 DPB) between January 2024 and April 2026.

The record contains 3 passes and 2 failures.

The most recent test on 29 April 2026 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 2 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (6 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (5 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Suspension (1 issue), Brakes (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 12 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 Brake load sensing valve seized but ABS functioning (1.1.17 (c) (i))”; “Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Exhaust Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (8.2.1.2 (c))”.
