This 2017 Vauxhall has 8 MOT tests on record with a 88% pass rate and 22,979 miles. The timing belt is a known model-specific weakness that requires immediate attention.
The mileage trajectory shows normal annual usage until Feb 2026, when only 180 miles were recorded over 9 years, indicating a significant and unexplained drop in recent usage.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: Only 180 miles recorded between Feb 2025 and Feb 2026 (9-year-old car).
- MOT failure: Front Headlamp aim too high both (4.1.2 (a)) on 2023-02-02, though retested same day.
- Timing belt wear: Known model-specific weakness for 2017 Vauxhall; verify service history.
- Low annual mileage: Average 6,487 miles/year for a 9-year-old car suggests very light use.
Working in its favour
- Strong MOT record: 7 of 8 tests passed with no dangerous defects recorded.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until 2027-03-01, offering peace of mind for over a year.
- Consistent low mileage: Average 6,487 miles/year indicates light, careful usage.
- No recurring failures: Single failure in 2023 was immediately rectified, showing owner care.
