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 2008 Vauxhall Astra (YS57 FXZ) between December 2010 and February 2022.

The record contains 12 passes and 6 failures.

The most recent test on 03 February 2022 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 (19 issues), Lighting (10 issues), Tyres (9 issues), Suspension (4 issues), Exhaust & Emissions (4 issues). Repeated mentions in one area can indicate an ongoing pattern worth checking in person.

In total 39 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 Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak (5.3.2 (b))”; “Offside Front Headlamp aim projected beam image is obviously incorrect (4.1.2 (c))”; “Nearside Front Headlamp aim too low (4.1.2 (a))”.
