This 2003 Vauxhall has 5 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 18,534 miles. The vehicle has a history of advisories on brakes and tyres, and a past MOT failure.

The vehicle shows 18,534 miles at its first MOT in July 2006, which is significantly below the UK average of 87,786 miles for a 23-year-old VAUXHALL, suggesting potential odometer issues.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 18,534 miles over 23 years (Jul 2006) — potential odometer fraud.
  • First MOT in Jul 2006 at 18,534 miles is unusually low for a 2003 vehicle.
  • Apr 2010 MOT advisory for front brake disc wear and anti-roll bar link.
  • Jul 2006 MOT failure for centre rear seat belt retracting mechanism defective.

Working in its favour

  • No recent MOT failures or dangerous defects recorded.
  • Consistent annual mileage since first MOT in 2006.
  • No recurring major system failures (e.g., brakes, suspension).
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
