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

This 2013 Vauxhall has 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 25,452 miles. While mileage is low for its age, the consistent need for repairs suggests potential underlying issues.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,662 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre advisories (Jun 2021, 2023, 2024) escalated to major failures (Jun 2024), indicating chronic wear.
  • Recurring brake pad advisories (Jun 2021, 2023) suggest a history of premature wear.
  • Recurring headlamp failures (Jun 2020, 2022, 2023) and stop lamp failures (Oct 2017, 2018) point to electrical system neglect.
  • The May 2025 MOT recorded an ADVISORY for a shock absorber, a critical safety component, which will require attention soon.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
  • The vehicle has a valid MOT until June 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
  • Mileage is consistently low for its age, indicating light usage and potentially less wear.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies is present in the MOT history.
