AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2006 Vauxhall has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 51,218 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of issues suggests significant wear and potential neglect.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,172 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage over its 19-year lifespan.
Things to check
- Recurring steering/suspension issues: Ball joint excessive play (Aug 2013 advisory) escalated to failure
Working in its favour
- Consistent mileage: Average 10,172 miles/year, well within UK norms, no fraud indicators.
- No major structural failures: No recurring major chassis or corrosion issues.
- Immediate retests: All 3 failures were immediately rectified and passed on the same or next day.
- Recent MOT pass: The vehicle passed its last MOT in August 2015, indicating it was roadworthy then.
