MOT Analysis

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

21 MOT tests are recorded for this 2004 Vauxhall Astra (MA04 XAR) between March 2007 and February 2024.

The record contains 18 passes and 3 failures.

The most recent test on 14 February 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 3 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (13 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Windscreen (2 issues), Tyres (2 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (1 issue). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 21 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: “Front Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (3.5 (a))”; “Registration plate lamp inoperative in the case of a single lamp or all lamps (4.7.1 (b) (ii))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”.
