This 2013 Vauxhall has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 36,695 miles. However, a pattern of recurring brake and suspension issues, including a dangerous brake failure, raises significant concerns about its long-term reliability and maintenance.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage, averaging 7,334 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
Things to check
- Dangerous brake failure on 2021-04-22 (test 74,979 mi) indicates critical safety neglect.
- Recurring brake advisories (2020-05-12) and disc wear (2021-04-22) suggest chronic brake system issues.
- Major suspension failure on 2025-04-22 (test 92,484 mi) and fractured coil spring (2025-04-22) point to ongoing structural wear.
- Major emissions failure on 2025-04-22 (test 92,484 mi) and 2024-04-22 (test 87,519 mi) indicates potential engine or DPF issues.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-13 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, normal mileage for its 13-year age (7,334 mi/yr) suggests no odometer fraud.
- No recurring failures on critical safety systems like steering or major electrical faults.
- Recent MOT pass on 2026-05-13 (test 98,088 mi) confirms current roadworthiness.
