AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 82% pass rate and 7,033 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, the very low mileage raises significant concerns about its true condition and potential for long periods of inactivity.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 2,924 miles/year, with a significant jump in usage before Aug 2018 (12,161 mi/yr equivalent) and a sharp drop to 1,355 miles/year from 2023 onwards, indicating a major discrepancy.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 44,504 miles over 15 years (2,924 mi/yr) — a major red flag for neglect.
- Unusually high initial usage: 12,161 miles/year equivalent before Aug 2018, then plummeting to 1,355 miles/year from 2023.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jul 2019, Jul 2020, Jul 2021) suggest chronic under-inflation or poor road contact.
- Single major failure (lights, Jul 2026) followed by immediate retest PASS indicates borderline maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until March 2027, offering peace of mind for over 3 years.
- No recurring major failures on critical safety systems like brakes or suspension.
