This 2018 Vauxhall has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 8,801 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, the persistent and escalating tyre advisories and a recent windscreen wiper failure warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows only 19,646 miles over 8 years, a significant anomaly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, suggesting either very light use or potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below average: 19,646 miles over 8 years (UK average: 8,000 miles/year).
- Offside Front Windscreen wiper failed (Apr 2024), a safety-critical component.
- Very low annual mileage (2,376 miles/yr) suggests limited use or potential odometer issues.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Valid MOT until April 2027, offering peace of mind for the next three years.
- No recurring major failures on critical safety systems like brakes or suspension.
