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 18,185 miles. While most issues were addressed, the repeated advisories for wear items suggest a need for thorough pre-purchase inspection.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,830 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 4 tests (Sep 2022, Sep 2023, Oct 2021, Sep 2025) indicate chronic wear.
- Recurring brake disc advisories across 2 tests (Sep 2022, Sep 2023) suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Multiple light failures (Sep 2022, Sep 2023) and anti-roll bar linkage dust cover failures (Oct 2021, Sep 2025) point to a history of reactive repairs.
- The 2021-10-13 MOT included two split shock dust cover advisories, a common wear item for this model.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until October 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent low annual mileage (4,830 miles/yr) suggests light use and potentially lower wear.
- All past failures were immediately rectified, demonstrating a responsive owner.
