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 14 MOT tests on record with a 79% pass rate and 35,242 miles. While there are historical advisories for brakes and tyres, these are typical wear items for its age and have been addressed.
The vehicle shows consistent low annual mileage, averaging 7,780 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes across 14 years of MOT history.
Things to check
- Recurring brake advisories (Jan 2021, Jan 2023) and tyre advisories (Jan 2023, Mar 2024) indicate typical wear items for a 2012 diesel.
- A 2020 service gap is noted in the MOT history, though no specific reason is provided for the vehicle being off-road.
- The 2015-05-01 MOT included advisories for under-trays and engine covers obscuring components, which may require removal for inspection.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Consistent, low annual mileage (7,780 mi/yr) suggests light use and less mechanical stress.
- No recurring major failures or dangerous defects are present in the MOT history.
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until March 2027, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
