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

This 2012 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 17,148 miles. While it has a recent clean MOT pass, the recurring advisories for tyres, brakes, and suspension indicate ongoing wear and potential neglect.

A 20,512-mile decrease is recorded between Apr 2019 (73,911 mi) and Oct 2020 (53,399 mi), a clear red flag for potential odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Apr 2019 (73,911 mi) and Oct 2020 (53,399 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
  • Mileage decreased by 20,512 miles between Apr 2019 (73,911 mi) and Oct 2020 (53,399 mi).
  • Recurring advisories for tyres (6 times), brakes (4 times), and suspension (2 times) across multiple MOTs.
  • Failed MOT on 2024-10-31 for front brake pads, then passed same day with no defect details.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-15, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage since the 2020 anomaly.
  • Recent clean MOT pass on 2025-11-15 with only minor advisories.
