This 2008 Vauxhall has 5 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 96,739 miles. While the 2019 pass is positive, the underlying structural neglect and high mileage demand significant caution.
The vehicle shows exceptionally high annual usage, averaging 13,993 miles per year, with a single MOT pass in May 2019 at 158,869 miles, indicating consistent but heavy driving.
Things to check
- 2016-11-17 FAILED: Offside Front coil spring broken (2.4.C.1a) — safety-critical suspension failure.
- 2016-11-17 FAILED: Nearside Front Inner Suspension arm excessive play (2.4.G.2) — structural integrity concern.
- 2016-11-17 FAILED: Nearside Front Inner Tyre cut (4.1.D.1a) — safety-critical tyre defect.
- 2016-11-17 FAILED: Offside Rear Brake pipe excessively corroded (3.6.B.2c) — dangerous brake system failure.
Working in its favour
- May 2019 MOT PASS at 158,869 miles — single clean pass after 2018 failures.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories since May 2019 — indicates some level of maintenance post-2018.
- Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating (2017) — excellent safety credentials for a 2008 Vauxhall.
- Consistent high mileage suggests regular use and no hidden storage or long periods of inactivity.
