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 71% pass rate and 38,319 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of repeated failures and advisories on critical safety systems warrants significant caution.

The vehicle exhibits high annual usage, averaging 22,592 miles per year, significantly above the UK average of 8,000 miles per year, with a notable drop in recent years (e.g., 7,915 miles in 2025-2026).

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS failure for Nearside Front Inner Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick on 2017-09-04.
  • DANGEROUS failure for Nearside Stop lamp not working on 2017-09-04.
  • DANGEROUS failure for Nearside Registration plate lamp not working on 2017-09-04.
  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories across multiple tests (e.g., Aug 2020, Feb 2024, Feb 2026).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-16, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No mileage discrepancies or signs of odometer fraud detected in the MOT history.
  • All past failures and advisories were addressed and retested successfully, showing responsive ownership.
  • No persistent DANGEROUS defects remaining from the most recent MOT (Feb 2026).
