MOT Analysis

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

16 MOT tests are recorded for this 2005 Vauxhall Corsa (SV55 XML) between September 2008 and October 2016.

The record contains 8 passes and 8 failures.
