AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Vauxhall has 22 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 20,370 miles. While many issues were resolved, the repeated nature of these problems suggests potential underlying wear or neglect.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 4,560 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.
Things to check
- Recurring exhaust leaks (major failure Mar 2020, advisory Mar 2021) indicate persistent system weakness.
- Offside Rear Coil spring fractured (major failure Mar 2021, advisory Mar 2019) shows a recurring suspension fault.
- Brake pads and discs were worn (advisory Mar 2022) but no subsequent failures were recorded, suggesting a one-off issue.
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,560 miles/yr) for a 15-year-old vehicle raises concerns about long-term reliability and maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until November 2026 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current issues are being addressed.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,560 miles/yr) suggests light use and potential for longevity.
- Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a strong safety record for its era.
