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 86% pass rate and 8,082 miles. However, a pattern of recurring advisories on critical components like tyres and suspension, coupled with a recent major exhaust failure, warrants careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,584 miles/year, with a notable increase in usage from 2019 onwards, but no suspicious drops or inconsistencies.
Things to check
- Major exhaust system failure recorded on 2026-04-15, a critical safety component.
- Recurring advisories for coil springs (2026-04-15) and suspension components (2023-04-15) indicate ongoing wear.
- Consistent low annual mileage (4,584 mi/yr) may suggest limited use or long periods of inactivity, potentially affecting mechanical health.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-04-15, offering significant peace of mind for the next three years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,584 mi/yr) suggests light use and potentially lower wear on components.
- No recorded DANGEROUS defects, indicating no immediate life-threatening safety issues.
