AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Vauxhall has 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 26,810 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of recurring failures and advisories on critical safety systems warrants a thorough investigation.
The vehicle exhibits suspiciously low mileage before Nov 2022 (46 mi/yr equivalent) and again before Jan 2024 (33 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant increase in usage from 2024 onwards.
Things to check
- Recurring brake failures (Oct 2020, Dec 2021) and advisories (Jan 2024) indicate systemic neglect.
- Suspension advisories (Nov 2022, Jan 2024) for corroded subframe and arms are a major concern.
- Mileage anomalies: Suspiciously low usage (46 mi/yr) before Nov 2022 and (33 mi/yr) before Jan 2024.
- Major failure for windscreen wipers (Apr 2014, Apr 2015) and washer fluid (Apr 2014) suggests poor maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until January 2027, offering immediate peace of mind.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) demonstrates a strong safety record for its model year.
- Consistent annual mileage increases since 2024, suggesting a return to regular use.
