This 2012 Vauxhall has 15 MOT tests on record with a 73% pass rate and 10,682 miles. However, a pattern of recurring brake and tyre issues, coupled with a recent MOT failure, warrants careful consideration.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal usage with 10,682 miles recorded over 14 years, averaging 6,617 miles per year, which is below the UK average of 8,000.
Things to check
- Aug 2025: Failed MOT with MINOR defects on windscreen and exhaust advisory.
- Aug 2025: Recurring tyre advisories escalated to a MAJOR failure in the most recent test.
- Aug 2025: Recurring brake advisories escalated to a DANGEROUS failure in the most recent test.
- Aug 2025: Recent MOT failure (Aug 2025) after a long gap in testing history (Sep 2018 to Aug 2025).
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-08-22, offering immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal mileage trajectory over its 14-year lifespan.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious mileage readings.
