AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Vauxhall has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 22,237 miles. This, combined with a dangerous brake failure and recurring tyre advisories, makes the vehicle's true condition and history highly questionable.
The mileage trajectory shows consistent low annual usage (4,764 miles/yr) until Oct 2025, when a 10,000-mile decrease was recorded from 73,909 miles to 65,548 miles.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Oct 2024 (73,909 mi) and Oct 2025 (65,548 mi) — possible odometer tamperin
- Mileage decreased by 8,361 miles between Oct 2024 (73,909 mi) and Oct 2025 (65,548 mi) — possible odometer tampering.
- DANGEROUS defect: Front Brakes imbalanced across an axle by more than 50% (Oct 2024) — immediate safety concern.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Oct 2015, Oct 2016) indicate a pattern of wear or damage.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until October 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring major structural failures (e.g., suspension, steering) beyond the dangerous brake issue.
- Consistent low annual mileage for its age, suggesting light use.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — high safety standard for its era.
