MOT Analysis

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

23 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Vauxhall Astra (V156 EVF) between September 2005 and October 2021.

The record contains 17 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 06 October 2021 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 6 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (15 issues), Lighting (12 issues), Windscreen (5 issues), Tyres (5 issues), Steering (2 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 20 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 Front Lower Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint excessively worn (5.3.4 (a) (i))”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”; “Central Rear Brake load sensing valve seized but ABS functioning (1.1.17 (c) (i))”.
