AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Vauxhall has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 22,133 miles. The vehicle's low mileage and SORN status further complicate its provenance and roadworthiness.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 5,190 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 18 miles between Aug 2021 and Sep 2021).
Things to check
- DANGEROUS tyre defect recorded on 2018-08-10 (43,658 mi) — immediate safety concern.
- Recurring MAJOR failures in brakes (Aug 2019) and suspension (Aug 2018) indicate systemic neglect.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Suspension arm ball joint on 2018-08-10 (43,658 mi) — critical safety component.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Brake disc on 2019-08-10 (48,261 mi) — safety-critical wear.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
- MOT valid until 2026-11-05, providing immediate peace of mind for the next two years.
- No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) is present in the provided data.
