AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2015 Vauxhall has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 40,443 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated issues with safety-critical systems warrant a thorough pre-purchase inspection.

Mileage is consistent with 40,443 miles in Dec 2018 and 81,505 miles in Jan 2026, averaging 7,402 miles/year, which is below the UK average of 8,000/year.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake system failures and advisories across 12 tests (Dec 2018, Dec 2020, Dec 2024).
  • Recurring tyre wear advisories (Dec 2018, Dec 2024) and a major ESC fault (Dec 2020).
  • Persistent handbrake binding issues (Dec 2018, Dec 2024) and shock absorber leaks (Dec 2018).
  • Major Electronic Stability Control (ESC) warning lamp fault (Dec 2020) is a serious safety concern.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Valid MOT until January 2027, offering immediate peace of mind.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (7,402 mi/yr) suggests light use.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
