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

This 2015 Vauxhall has 11 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 25,622 miles. However, the MOT history reveals a pattern of recurring minor and major defects, particularly with tyres and engine oil, indicating a need for thorough inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,635 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though usage was very low (2,152 miles) between Oct 2021 and Nov 2022.

Things to check

  • Recurring advisories on tyres (Nov 2019, 2020, 2024, 2025) and brakes (Nov 2019, 2020, 2024, 2025) indicate chronic wear.
  • Engine oil and coolant advisories (Nov 2024, 2025) suggest a history of fluid leaks or poor maintenance.
  • Major failures for lights (Nov 2018) and steering (Nov 2023) show past structural neglect.
  • The Nov 2025 MOT failed due to engine oil and coolant, then passed, suggesting a borderline fix.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until November 2026 provides immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
