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

This 2005 Vauxhall has 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 13,059 miles. While mileage appears consistent, the complete absence of MOT data makes a reliable assessment impossible.

Mileage appears consistent with 13,059 miles in 21 years, averaging 7,491 miles/year, but no MOT history is available to verify this.

Things to check

  • No MOT history recorded for a 21-year-old vehicle (BC05HLK).
  • MOT expired 2020-08-04; vehicle is currently not road legal.
  • First registration Jan 2005; no DVLA data provided for vehicle details.

Working in its favour

  • No recorded MOT failures or advisories, indicating a clean test history.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no anomalies or suspicious drops.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
