AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Vauxhall has 13 MOT tests on record with a 77% pass rate and 36,717 miles. The timing belt is a significant upcoming cost.

The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage of 8,279 miles/year, with no anomalies or suspicious readings across its 24-year history.

Things to check

  • Vehicle is 24 years old with a 2015-08-20 MOT expiry, indicating it has been off-road for years.
  • Brake system advisories and failures (e.g., 2008-05-20) and 2015-08-20 MOT expiry suggest significant wear.
  • Tyre advisories (e.g., 2008-05-20) and 2015-08-20 MOT expiry point to recurring maintenance needs.
  • The timing belt is a known high-cost component for this age of vehicle, requiring imminent replacement.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
  • Consistent, normal annual mileage of 8,279 miles/year, with no anomalies.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies across its 24-year history.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars indicates a strong safety record for its era.
