AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 91,412 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the mileage anomaly is a critical red flag for any buyer.
The mileage decreased from 260,210 miles in November 2025 to 100,058 miles in May 2026, a 160,152-mile drop that is highly suspicious and suggests possible odometer tampering.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Nov 2025 (260,210 mi) and May 2026 (100,058 mi) — possible odometer tamper
- Mileage decreased 160,152 miles between Nov 2025 (260,210 mi) and May 2026 (100,058 mi) — strong odometer tampering indicator.
- Unusually high initial mileage jumps (e.g., 33,788 mi/yr before Mar 2021, 44,665 mi/yr before Feb 2022) suggest high-stress use or tampering.
- Recurring brake disc advisories across 6 tests (Mar 2021, Feb 2022, Oct 2022, Apr 2023, Oct 2023, Apr 2024) indicate chronic wear.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until May 2027, indicating current roadworthiness despite mileage anomalies.
- No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, suggesting no immediate safety failures.
- Consistent annual mileage (10,700 mi/yr average) before the significant drop, indicating regular use.
- No recurring failures on the same system (e.g., brakes, suspension) across multiple tests.
