MOT Analysis

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

12 MOT tests are recorded for this 1999 Vauxhall Astra (V421 PKE) between September 2005 and February 2012.

The record contains 7 passes and 5 failures.

The most recent test on 13 February 2012 was a fail; the vehicle has not passed its last recorded MOT.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (19 issues), Lighting (8 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (7 issues), Windscreen (3 issues), Tyres (3 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 21 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: “Exhaust emissions hydrocarbon content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)”; “Exhaust emissions Lambda reading after 2nd fast idle outside specified limits (7.3.D.3)”; “Exhaust emissions carbon monoxide content after 2nd fast idle excessive (7.3.D.3)”.
