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 80% pass rate and 4,644 miles. The recurring tyre advisories and a recent failure for the TPMS system also warrant careful inspection.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 24,868 miles over 10 years, with a suspiciously low 219 miles recorded between Jan 2016 and Oct 2021, followed by a 7-year gap with no MOTs, and then a 7,840-mile jump by Sep 2022.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below average: 24,868 miles over 10 years (Jan 2016 to Aug 2025).
- Mileage anomaly: 219 miles recorded between Jan 2016 and Oct 2021, then 7,840 miles by Sep 2022.
- Mileage anomaly: 7-year gap (Oct 2021 to Sep 2022) with no MOT tests recorded.
- Recent MOT failure: Tyre Pressure Monitoring System malfunctioning (Aug 2025).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-14, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recent major failures or dangerous defects on the latest MOT.
- Consistent annual mileage increases since Sep 2022, despite low overall total.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
