MOT Analysis

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

25 MOT tests are recorded for this 2008 Vauxhall Corsa (SB57 EAE) between February 2011 and June 2023.

The record contains 14 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 09 June 2023 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: Suspension (18 issues), Brakes (9 issues), Lighting (9 issues), Tyres (8 issues), Windscreen (5 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: “Front Sub-frame corroded and seriously weakened (5.3.3 (b) (i))”; “Emissions not tested (8.2.1.2 (d))”; “Oil leaking excessively from engine (8.4.1 (a) (i))”.
