This 2012 Vauxhall has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 31,915 miles. The car's high usage and untaxed status require careful consideration.

Things to check
- MOT expired 2020-10-01; current MOT status is 'Not valid' — requires immediate retest.
- High annual mileage (13,755 mi/yr) for a 2012 car suggests heavy commercial or high-mileage use.
- Single MOT failure on 2016-09-07 for offside headlamp, though immediately rectified.
- DANGEROUS defect recorded on 2017-09-20 for offside rear tyre wear.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- No recurring failures or advisories on critical systems like brakes or suspension.
- Consistent retest passes after initial failures demonstrate prompt owner rectification.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
