AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Vauxhall has 7 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 39,831 miles. However, a recent MOT failure in April 2026, combined with recurring tyre advisories and a timing belt issue, warrants careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage averaging 9,682 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 39,831 miles recorded by March 2021.
Things to check
- MOT failure on 2026-04-19 for offside anti-roll bar linkage dust cover.
- Timing belt advisory noted (no date) — a significant component due for inspection.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-04-18, offering peace of mind for several years.
- Consistent, normal mileage of 9,682 miles/year, indicating regular use.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects in the MOT history.
- Recent MOT pass on 2026-04-20 after addressing the failure, showing owner responsiveness.
