This 2002 Vauxhall has 6 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 54,985 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of neglect and recent failures warrant significant caution.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,677 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but there is a 2007 MOT gap.

Things to check

  • Major suspension failure on 2010-04-01 (ball joint excessive play).
  • Major exhaust leak advisory on 2008-01-31 (minor leak).
  • Major tyre failure on 2008-01-31 (not fitted in accordance).
  • Major wheel stud failure on 2008-01-31 (missing offside rear).

Working in its favour

  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,677 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
  • All major failures were promptly rectified and passed subsequent MOTs.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
