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 67% pass rate and 44,353 miles. While it has a valid MOT until 2026, the recurring dangerous defects and unexplained low usage make this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle recorded suspiciously low mileage (12 mi/yr equivalent) from registration in Jan 2012 to Dec 2021, followed by normal usage from 2022 onwards.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Nov 2024): Rear Inner Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
  • DANGEROUS brake failures recorded in Dec 2019 and Dec 2023, indicating severe neglect.
  • Mileage was suspiciously low (12 mi/yr equivalent) from Jan 2012 to Dec 2021, suggesting long periods of inactivity.
  • Recurring major failures in lights and electrical systems across multiple tests.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT certificate until December 2026, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed) or write-off markers is present in the provided data.
  • The car has a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, suggesting good overall safety features for its age.
