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

This 2011 Vauxhall has 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 24,313 miles. The vehicle's low annual mileage for its age also warrants careful consideration.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,962 miles per year, with a notable drop from 6,407 miles/year in 2019 to 1,311 miles/year in 2021, suggesting periods of very low usage.

Things to check

  • Dangerous headlamp failure on 2014-11-10 (24,313 mi) — insecure.
  • Recurring exhaust advisories from 2015–2025, escalating to major leak in 2021.
  • Persistent subframe corrosion advisories from 2015–2025, indicating structural wear.
  • Recurring coil spring advisories from 2015–2025, suggesting ongoing suspension issues.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-11-18, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No recent major failures or dangerous defects since 2025.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
