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

This 2012 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 20,127 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of neglect in critical safety areas demands thorough investigation.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,278 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though annual usage has fluctuated significantly since 2020.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc wear (Dec 2020) and pad wear (Dec 2020, Jan 2024) indicate chronic neglect.
  • Multiple tyre failures (Jan 2024, Feb 2025, Mar 2026) and suspension arm advisories (Dec 2020) show a pattern of deferred maintenance.
  • A 2022–2023 MOT gap suggests periods of off-road use or unrecorded history, raising questions about maintenance.
  • The vehicle is not ULEZ-compliant, incurring a £12.50/day charge in London.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until March 2027 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
