AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2008 Vauxhall has 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 22,359 miles. While mileage is low, the pattern of issues suggests potential neglect.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,128 miles per year, with a significant 3-year gap in MOT history (2020) and inconsistent mileage readings.

Things to check

  • Recurring minor failures and advisories on lights and brakes across multiple MOTs.
  • Extremely low annual mileage (4,128 mi/yr) for an 18-year-old vehicle.
  • A 3-year MOT gap (2020) is highly unusual and requires a clear explanation.
  • The 2011-12-12 test failed for insufficient washer liquid, a basic safety item, and passed the same day.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until March 2027, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, mileage trajectory over its 18-year lifespan.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
