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 15 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 24,870 miles. The vehicle's age and low annual usage also present significant long-term wear risks.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 5,574 miles per year, with a notable drop in usage from 2019 to 2021, and a recent increase from 2022 onwards.
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories across 5 tests (Apr 2020, Mar 2021, Mar 2021, Jul 2022, Aug 2023) indicate chronic wear.
- Dangerous brake failure recorded on 2020-04-01 (test 1) is a serious safety concern.
- Major headlamp failures on 2020-04-01 and 2021-03-01, with recurring advisories, suggest electrical issues.
- Major windscreen damage failures on 2020-04-01 and 2021-03-01, with a recurring advisory, point to structural integrity concerns.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-09 provides immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent low mileage (5,574 mi/yr) suggests light use, potentially reducing wear on certain components.
- No recurring major failures on critical systems like engine, transmission, or suspension.
