This 2012 Vauxhall has 12 MOT tests on record with a 92% pass rate and 80,910 miles. The recent MOT (Oct 2025) carries advisories on a coil spring and exhaust, indicating ongoing maintenance needs.
The vehicle shows high annual usage, averaging 12,906 miles/year, with a notable spike of 10,942 miles in the 12 months to Oct 2024, though this is consistent with its high total mileage.
Things to check
- High annual mileage (12,906 miles/yr) compared to UK average (8,000 miles/yr) indicates accelerated wear.
- Recurring advisories on tyres (6 flags) and suspension (4 flags) across multiple tests suggest ongoing maintenance needs.
- Oct 2025 MOT carries advisories for a coil spring and exhaust, indicating immediate repair costs.
- The 2017-11-14 failed MOT for a headlamp was immediately rectified, but highlights a past minor issue.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- No MOT failures recorded across 8 tests, demonstrating a generally well-maintained vehicle.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or round numbers, indicating genuine usage.
