AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2013 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 31,741 miles. Most critically, the mileage data shows a significant decrease, indicating potential odometer tampering.

The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious, showing a decrease of 69,549 miles between Dec 2020 (134,054 mi) and Dec 2021 (64,505 mi), a clear red flag for odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Dec 2020 (134,054 mi) and Dec 2021 (64,505 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • Mileage decreased by 69,549 miles between Dec 2020 and Dec 2021, indicating potential odometer tampering.
  • Multiple recurring failures on tyres (May 2019, Dec 2020, Jul 2025) and brakes (Dec 2020, Dec 2021, Jul 2025).
  • Six major failures and nine related advisories for brakes across multiple tests.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until August 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring failures on major safety systems like steering or emissions.
  • Consistent annual mileage before the suspicious drop in 2021.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
