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 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 13,434 miles. The car's age and potential timing belt issues also present significant long-term risks.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 3,326 miles/year, with a significant drop to 1,282 miles/year between Nov 2020 and Nov 2021, raising odometer integrity concerns.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 49,481 miles over 15 years (typical: 87,786 miles).
  • Recurring brake advisories: Front pads wearing thin (Nov 2023), rear pads (Nov 2025), and front disc pitted (Nov 2025).
  • First MOT failure on 2017-11-22 for registration plate lamp, though immediately rectified.
  • Timing belt replacement is likely due soon given age and mileage; estimate ~£500-£800.

Working in its favour

  • Solid MOT pass record with 8 of 9 tests passed and no dangerous defects.
  • Low mileage for its age (49,481 miles) suggests less wear and tear.
  • Recent MOT pass on 2025-11-25, valid until 2026-11-25, offering peace of mind.
  • No recurring major failures or structural issues identified in the MOT history.
