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 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 20,511 miles. However, the vehicle is currently untaxed and has a lapsed MOT, requiring immediate verification.

The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 9,142 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension failures (Oct 2020, Oct 2021) and lighting advisories (Oct 2019, Oct 2021) suggest ongoing wear.
  • The vehicle is currently untaxed and has a lapsed MOT (expired 2022-10-18), requiring immediate verification.
  • A DANGEROUS tyre defect was recorded in Oct 2020, indicating a critical safety failure at that time.
  • The Oct 2019 MOT noted worn rear brake discs and both front tyres close to legal limit, indicating significant wear.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (9,142 mi/yr) suggests light use and less accumulated wear.
  • No major recurring brake failures, which is a positive for a 15-year-old vehicle.
