This 2018 Vauxhall has 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 31,033 miles. However, a clear pattern of recurring tyre and brake advisories, escalating to failures, indicates a history of reactive maintenance.
The vehicle shows consistent annual usage, averaging 10,656 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jul 2022, Jul 2023, Jul 2024) and a dangerous failure (Jul 2022) suggest chronic wear.
- Recurring brake pad advisories (Jul 2022, Jul 2023, Jul 2024) and a dangerous failure (Jul 2022) indicate a pattern of neglect.
- Suspension arm ball joint dust cover MINOR (Jul 2024) escalated to MAJOR (Jan 2026) failure, showing a critical safety component was ignored.
- Offside Front Windscreen wiper MAJOR failure (Jul 2022) and MINOR advisory (Jul 2024) suggest poor maintenance of safety-critical components.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until January 2027, offering peace of mind for several years.
- Consistent annual mileage of 10,656 miles/year, aligning with UK average, suggests normal usage.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation in the provided MOT history.
- All major and minor failures were promptly rectified and passed subsequent retests, demonstrating responsive ownership.
