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 20 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 19,413 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age (4,656 miles/yr) combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating creates a significant contradiction that requires immediate investigation.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 4,656 miles/yr, averaging only 1,457 miles/year between 2019 and 2021, and 2,666 miles/year between 2022 and 2023, which is highly unusual for a 15-year-old vehicle.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defect recorded on 2018-10-22 (44,325 mi) — immediate safety concern.
- Recurring major failures in brakes (Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Oct 2024) and engine oil (Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Oct 2024) — systemic neglect.
- Recurring major failures in suspension (Oct 2021, Oct 2022, Oct 2023, Oct 2024) — persistent structural weakness.
- Recurring major failures in exhaust (Oct 2021, Oct 2022, Oct 2023) — repeated emissions system issues.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 8 historical failures
