MOT Analysis

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

24 MOT tests are recorded for this 1998 Vauxhall Corsa (S841 EAB) between December 2006 and January 2022.

The record contains 15 passes and 9 failures.

The most recent test on 24 January 2022 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Tyres (14 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (10 issues), Bodywork (8 issues), Suspension (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 46 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 master cylinder/servo mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded (1.1.21 (e) (i))”; “Nearside Vehicle structure corroded to the extent that the rigidity of the assembly is significantly reduced outer sill ”; “Offside Front Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”.
