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

This 2012 Vauxhall has 18 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 33,834 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated failures and advisories point to ongoing maintenance needs.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 6,845 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent low annual usage of 4,423 miles in 2024-2025.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure recorded on 2024-08-28, indicating a severe safety hazard.
  • Recurring suspension failures (coil springs) on 2021-11-30, 2022-11-30, and 2024-08-28.
  • Recurring brake disc wear advisories on 2024-08-28 and 2024-11-30.
  • Recurring tyre condition advisories on 2022-11-30, 2023-09-30, and 2025-09-13.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-13, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (6,845 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
  • All past failures were immediately rectified and passed subsequent retests.
