AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2006 Vauxhall has 22 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 23,348 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age (3,963 miles/year) raises significant questions about its true condition and usage.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage of 3,963 miles/year, averaging only 2,174 miles/year in the last 5 years, which is highly unusual for a 20-year-old car.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake disc advisories (Feb 2020, Feb 2022, Jul 2024) indicate ongoing wear.
  • Recurring engine oil advisories (Feb 2020, Feb 2021, Feb 2022) suggest a persistent issue.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (Feb 2020, Feb 2021, Feb 2022) point to a pattern of neglect.
  • Major failure for windscreen wiper (Feb 2020) and insecure seatbelt anchorage (Feb 2020) are significant.

Working in its favour

  • No major failures since the initial 2 failures in 2019 and 2020.
  • The most recent MOT (Jul 2024) passed without any major defects or failures.
  • The car has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, indicating good structural integrity.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory, despite being low, shows no suspicious drops or spikes.
