MOT Analysis

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

18 MOT tests are recorded for this 2002 Vauxhall Astra (SO02 RBX) between July 2005 and October 2016.

The record contains 10 passes and 8 failures.

The most recent test on 21 October 2016 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (38 issues), Lighting (25 issues), Tyres (15 issues), Suspension (12 issues), Bodywork (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 44 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: “Offside Front Macpherson strut has excessive movement at the upper attachment (2.5.A.1c)”; “Nearside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded lsv-flexi (3.6.B.2c)”; “Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (4.1.E.1)”.
