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 17,491 miles. The mileage trajectory is suspicious, and the vehicle has been off-road for a significant period.
The mileage trajectory shows a significant drop in annual usage from 15,000 miles in 2020 to 8,000 miles/year average, with a 2-year gap in 2022 where no MOT was recorded.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failure on 2019-10-02, immediately rectified but indicates severe neglect.
- Recurring subframe corrosion advisories (Nov 2020) escalated to MAJOR failure (Jan 2025).
- Recurring tyre advisories (Dec 2021) escalated to DANGEROUS failure (Jan 2024).
- Recurring engine oil advisories (Oct 2018) across 13 tests, a clear pattern of neglect.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-01, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory averaging 8,607 miles/year, aligning with UK average.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
