This 2008 Vauxhall has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 23,730 miles. The 2016 failure and subsequent retest also require scrutiny.

The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 6,604 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a 2013 MOT gap is concerning.

Things to check

  • 2013 MOT gap: No MOT recorded between 2012-12-21 and 2014-01-03.
  • 2016-01-01 MOT failure: Vehicle failed its first MOT in January 2016, though details are missing.
  • All four brake discs worn (Mar 2018): All four brake discs were noted as worn in March 2018, indicating significant wear.
  • Brake disc advisories (Mar 2018): All four brake discs were noted as worn in March 2018, indicating significant wear.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Low annual mileage: Only 23,730 miles recorded over 18 years, suggesting light use.
  • No dangerous defects: No DANGEROUS-rated defects were ever recorded on this vehicle.
  • Consistent retests: The single 2016 failure was immediately rectified and passed on the same day.
