This 2008 Vauxhall has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 42,696 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the pattern of neglect in maintenance requires careful consideration.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 122,966 miles in Jan 2019, then a suspiciously low 15,249 miles in Jan 2020, followed by a massive jump to 165,678 miles by Nov 2021, and only 9,669 miles in the subsequent year.
Things to check
- Mileage anomaly: 122,966 miles (Jan 2019) followed by 15,249 miles (Jan 2020) and 165,678 miles (Nov 2021) — highly suspicious.
- Recurring Tyre advisories (Jan 2019, Nov 2021, Nov 2022) and Headlamp advisories (Jan 2019, Oct 2012) indicate chronic neglect.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Track rod end ball joint (Jan 2020) and Nearside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint (Jan 2019) points to suspension wear.
- Major failure for Nearside Front Drive shaft joint constant velocity boot (Jan 2020) and Nearside Front Anti-roll bar ball joint (Jan 2019) suggests further steering/suspension issues.
Working in its favour
- Vehicle has a valid MOT certificate, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- No DANGEROUS defects are recorded in the MOT history, which is a positive sign for immediate safety.
- The car has consistently passed its MOT tests after any initial failures, showing it can be maintained to pass standards.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
