AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2013 Vauxhall has 13 MOT tests on record with a 85% pass rate and 17,549 miles.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 11,519 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but a 5-year MOT gap from 2017-2021 is a major concern.

Things to check

  • 5-year MOT gap from 2017-2021 (Oct 2017 to Apr 2017, then Apr 2017 to Oct 2017, then no tests until 2016-04-09).
  • Recent timing belt advisory (Oct 2025) — a critical component for a 2013 diesel Vauxhall, potentially due for replacement.
  • Recurring tyre advisories (Oct 2024, Nov 2022) indicate a pattern of wear that may not have been fully addressed.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 11,519 miles/year, well above the UK average of 8,000.
  • No recurring major failures on critical systems like brakes or suspension since the 2017 headlamp issue.
