This 2012 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 21,313 miles. The primary concern is the extensive history of tyre advisories, indicating a need for immediate attention.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,145 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
Things to check
- Extensive tyre advisories across 6 tests (Jan 2020–Jan 2026) suggest chronic wear.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Tyre tread depth in Jan 2022 indicates a safety-critical issue.
- Recurring 'rear most seats not fitted' advisory from 2015 to 2017 is unusual.
Working in its favour
- Consistent, low annual mileage (6,145 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
- Single minor MOT failure (Jan 2022) was immediately rectified, showing responsible ownership.
- Valid MOT until Feb 2027, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a well-regarded safety record.
