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 2006 Vauxhall Astra (VX06 FBY) between April 2009 and May 2024.

The record contains 16 passes and 7 failures.

The most recent test on 15 May 2024 was a pass, although the earlier record includes 7 failures that buyers may want to investigate.

Across all tests, the most frequently flagged areas are: Brakes (15 issues), Tyres (14 issues), Lighting (13 issues), Suspension (7 issues), Windscreen (7 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 36 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 Rear Outer Brake pipe excessively corroded (1.1.11 (c))”; “Offside Rear Other passenger door cannot be opened from outside the vehicle (6.2.3 (a))”; “Offside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))”.
