AI verdict AVOID 46/100

AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2006 Vauxhall has 29 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 7,402 miles. The vehicle's age, combined with its poor maintenance record and unexplained mileage, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 3,855 miles/yr, averaging only 7,402 miles over 20 years, with a significant 36-month period of only 36 miles between Sep 2023 and Nov 2023.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Nov 2024): Nearside Front Inner Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
  • DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Front Inner Tyre worn close to legal limit (Sep 2022) — immediately failed.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 12 historical failures
