This 2013 Vauxhall has 16 MOT tests on record with a 62% pass rate and 74,277 miles. The mileage trajectory shows high usage, and recurring issues like brake pads and discs indicate a pattern of neglect.
The mileage trajectory shows high usage, averaging 13,494 miles/year, with a significant spike of 27,241 miles in just 12 months between Feb 2021 and Feb 2022.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS brake failures on 6 occasions (Feb 2019, Feb 2022, Mar 2023, Apr 2024) indicate severe neglect.
- High annual mileage (13,494 miles/year) suggests heavy commercial or high-usage driving.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Apr 2023) escalated to a DANGEROUS failure (Apr 2024).
- Recurring coil spring advisories (Feb 2022, Apr 2025) suggest ongoing suspension wear.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle.
- Consistent mileage readings with no suspicious drops or round numbers.
- No outstanding MOT failures or dangerous defects on the most recent test (Apr 2025).
- Immediate retests after failures show issues were addressed and the car remained roadworthy.
