This 2011 Vauxhall has 13 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 9,253 miles. The vehicle's extremely low annual usage (4,391 miles/yr) also raises questions about its maintenance and potential for long-term issues.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 4,391 miles per year, with a significant 3-year gap (2020) in recorded MOT tests.
Things to check
- Recurring DANGEROUS brake failures (Jul 2021, Jul 2022) indicate systemic neglect of critical safety components.
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,391 mi/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle suggests prolonged inactivity, impacting maintenance.
- Multiple recurring advisories for tyres and emissions (Jul 2022, Jul 2023, Jul 2024) point to a pattern of wear items being allowed to deteriorate.
- A 3-year MOT gap (2020) is unexplained and raises serious questions about the vehicle's history and maintenance during that period.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until July 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No current MOT failures or dangerous defects are present on the latest test (Jul 2025).
- The vehicle has consistently passed its retests after initial failures, showing issues were addressed.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its model year.
