AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Vauxhall has 19 MOT tests on record with a 74% pass rate and 28,089 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, coupled with a 2017 Euro NCAP rating, makes this a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 5,347 miles per year, with a significant anomaly of only 186 miles recorded between Jan 2010 and May 2020.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failures on 3 separate occasions (Jan 2021, Jan 2022, Jan 2025).
- Recurring major failures for lights (8 instances) and engine/oil (1 instance) across multiple years.
- Mileage is extremely low for its age, averaging only 5,347 miles/year, with a significant 186-mile anomaly (Jan 2010-May 2020).
- The 2017 Euro NCAP safety rating for a 2010 vehicle is highly unusual and a significant red flag.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- MOT is currently valid until April 2027, indicating it recently passed inspection.
- No advisories were carried over from previous MOTs, suggesting immediate issues were addressed.
- The vehicle has a consistent, if low, mileage history since the initial anomaly in 2020.
