MOT Analysis

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

19 MOT tests are recorded for this 2010 Vauxhall Meriva (S30 LAY) between March 2013 and April 2026.

The record contains 14 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 23 April 2026 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: Exhaust & Emissions (17 issues), Brakes (16 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Lighting (3 issues), Suspension (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 39 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: “Brake performance unable to be tested (1.2.1 (g))”; “Central Rear Brake pipe leaking on a hydraulic braking system (1.1.11 (b) (ii))”; “Nearside Rear Tyre has a lump, caused by separation or partial failure of its structure inner part of tyre (5.2.3 (d) (i”.
