MOT Analysis

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

26 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Vauxhall Combo (SH55 LHB) between February 2009 and February 2023.

The record contains 15 passes and 11 failures.

The most recent test on 28 February 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: Brakes (38 issues), Lighting (21 issues), Tyres (20 issues), Suspension (13 issues), Steering (6 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 57 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 Track rod end ball joint has excessive play (2.1.3 (b) (i))”; “Front Brake disc in such a condition that it is seriously weakened (1.1.14 (a) (ii))”; “Rear Exhaust has a major leak of exhaust gases box (6.1.2 (a))”.
