AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2016 Vauxhall has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 37,629 miles. However, a pattern of recurring tyre advisories and a DANGEROUS brake failure in 2023 warrant careful inspection.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage averaging 10,274 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure (pads <1.5mm) on 2023-02-27 indicates past neglect.
- Recurring tyre advisories across 4 tests (e.g., 2022-02-08, 2026-02-22) suggest ongoing wear.
- Multiple major failures (lights, windscreen, camera) on 2023-02-27 point to reactive maintenance.
- A 2020 service gap is noted, which could indicate periods of neglect.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-03-01 provides peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory (10,274 mi/yr) aligns with typical UK usage.
