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

This 2009 Vauxhall has 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 19,521 miles. The vehicle's MOT status is currently 'Not valid' as of 2018-10-16, which is a major concern.

The mileage trajectory is consistent and normal, averaging 6,886 miles/year with no suspicious drops or spikes, showing 19,521 miles in April 2012 and 60,585 miles in October 2017.

Things to check

  • MOT expired 2018-10-16; vehicle is currently not road legal and requires immediate re-MOT.
  • Recurring major failures for tyres (3 times) and lighting (4 times) across 8 tests indicate chronic maintenance neglect.
  • The 2012-04-03 advisory for 'Front Brake pad(s) wearing thin' is a high concern for a 17-year-old vehicle.
  • The 2014-07-28 failure for 'Offside Obligatory mirror missing' and 'Headlamp aim not tested' highlights basic safety oversight.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Consistent and normal mileage trajectory with no anomalies, averaging 6,886 miles/year.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the MOT history.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
