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 3 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 80,780 miles. While it has a long MOT history, the high mileage and unverified usage during a critical period present significant risks.
The vehicle shows high annual usage (20,378 miles/yr), but a critical 3-year MOT gap (Oct 2008-Nov 2011) means mileage during this period is unverified, raising fraud concerns.
Things to check
- MOT history shows a 3-year gap (Oct 2008–Nov 2011) with unverified mileage.
- Major failure for excessive exhaust smoke (turbocharged) on 2011-11-25.
- Major failure for excessive anti-roll bar linkage play on 2011-11-25.
- Major failure for steering arm movement on 2011-11-25.
Working in its favour
- Passed 2 of 3 MOT tests, showing some recent compliance.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good structural integrity.
- No recurring failures on the same system across multiple tests.
- MOT valid until 2012-11-24, providing a long initial certificate period.
