This 2013 Vauxhall has 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 11,368 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the history of repeated failures and advisories on critical safety systems warrants careful consideration.
The mileage trajectory is consistent with normal UK usage until 2023, but a significant spike of 30,633 miles occurred between Jan 2024 and Jul 2025, followed by a further 30,633 miles by Jul 2025.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jul 2025): Nearside Front Tyre has ply or cords exposed (5.2.3 (d) (ii))
- Recurring tyre failures and advisories across 6+ tests (e.g., Jul 2020, May 2022, Jan 2024, Jul 2025).
- Recurring suspension failures and advisories across 3+ tests (e.g., Jul 2020, Mar 2021, Jul 2025).
- Dangerous brake failure recorded in Jul 2025 MOT test.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-07-25, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,222 miles/year, typical for a UK vehicle.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering.
- Immediate retests after failures show owner's proactive approach to repairs.
