This 2008 Vauxhall has 22 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 51,662 miles. The vehicle's extremely low mileage and a 2025 service gap also raise significant red flags.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 5,017 miles per year, with a suspiciously low 245 miles recorded between Feb 2026 and the last valid MOT in 2027.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Nov 2024): Offside Rear Outer Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
- DANGEROUS defect: Offside Rear Shock absorbers has a serious fluid leak — Nov 2024.
- Recurring Brake System failures: 3 major failures and 7 related advisories across 6 tests.
- Recurring Tyre wear advisories: 16 advisories across 6 tests, indicating chronic neglect.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-26, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories since the last test in Feb 2026.
- Consistent mileage trajectory, despite low annual usage, shows no fraud.
- Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe and reliable vehicle.
