MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Saab 9-5 (LA06 VLE) between June 2009 and June 2021.

The record contains 13 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 28 June 2021 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 (12 issues), Suspension (8 issues), Tyres (6 issues), Lighting (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 24 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 lever ratchet mechanism worn to the extent that the brake may inadvertently release (1.1.6 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Sub-frame has excessive play in a pin/bush all bushes on o/s have play causing subframe to move (2.4.G.2)”; “Nearside Sub-frame has excessive play in a pin/bush all bushes on n/s have play causing subframe to move (2.4.G.2)”.
