This 2016 Vauxhall has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 17,853 miles. While there are recurring advisories for tyres and brakes, these are typical wear items for a 10-year-old vehicle.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,639 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine light usage.
Things to check
- The single major failure for steering in Sep 2023, though rectified, is a one-off safety concern.
Working in its favour
- Clean MOT record with 8 passes out of 9 tests, showing good overall roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (5,639 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear on components.
- No DANGEROUS defects recorded, indicating no immediate safety hazards.
- Valid MOT until October 2026, providing peace of mind for the next two years.
