AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2008 Vauxhall has 25 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 9,000 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage of 9,000 miles over 18 years, combined with a 15,722-mile jump in 2020, raises significant red flags for odometer fraud.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage (3,715 mi/yr) with a critical 15,722-mile jump between May 2019 (36,406 mi) and Nov 2020 (52,287 mi), strongly suggesting odometer fraud.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 15,722-mile jump between May 2019 and Nov 2020 — high fraud risk.
- Mileage integrity: Only 9,000 miles recorded in 18 years, far below UK average (8,000 mi/yr).
- Recurring suspension failures: Both front coil springs fractured (Aug 2021, Aug 2023) — structural neglect.
- Recurring tyre advisories: Multiple tyre damage advisories (Nov 2020, Aug 2021, Aug 2025) — consistent wear pattern.
Working in its favour
- Current MOT valid until 2026-08-30, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Aug 2025).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, which is a positive for immediate roadworthiness.
