This 2012 Vauxhall has 12 MOT tests on record with a 100% pass rate and 26,885 miles. The car has been off-road for extended periods, which is a major concern for a 14-year-old vehicle.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Nov 2021 (101 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant drop in annual usage, indicating periods of inactivity or potential odometer issues.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: Suspiciously low usage before Nov 2021 (101 mi/yr equivalent).
- Mileage anomaly: Significant drop in annual usage post-Nov 2021 (633 mi/yr in 2022).
- Off-road history: Vehicle was off-road for extended periods, raising concerns about long-term storage.
Working in its favour
- Strong MOT pass record: 8 consecutive passes with no failures recorded.
- Long MOT validity: Valid MOT until April 2027, offering peace of mind for two years.
- No dangerous defects: No DANGEROUS-rated defects found in the MOT history.
- Consistent recent mileage: Relatively consistent annual mileage since 2021, despite initial low usage.
