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 20 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 68,613 miles. The high mileage and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 16,402 miles/year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 7,326 miles in 2021-2022).

Things to check

  • 2020 MOT gap: No MOT recorded for 2020, indicating potential off-road use or neglect.
  • High mileage: 16,402 miles/year is significantly above UK average, indicating heavy wear.
  • Recurring failures: 6 major failures across lights, suspension, and brakes, with 13 related advisories.
  • Brake system wear: Front and rear brake discs and pads repeatedly flagged as worn (Jul 2018, Mar 2023, Mar 2024).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until April 2027: Current MOT status is valid, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • No mileage fraud: Mileage trajectory shows no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating honest odometer readings.
  • Recent clean pass: The most recent MOT (Apr 2026) passed after addressing failures, showing current roadworthiness.
  • Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars (2017) — a strong safety rating for this model.
