MOT Analysis

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

28 MOT tests are recorded for this 2006 Vauxhall Meriva (OV56 JKZ) between December 2009 and October 2025.

The record contains 17 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 25 October 2025 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 11 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (53 issues), Lighting (18 issues), Suspension (18 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Windscreen (8 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 112 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: “Nearside Rear Other passenger door cannot be opened from outside the vehicle (6.2.3 (a))”; “Offside Front Position lamp not working (4.2.1 (a) (ii))”; “Front Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (3.4 (b) (ii))”.
