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

This 2006 Vauxhall has 25 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 26,755 miles. This, combined with a 20-year history of recurring mechanical failures and advisories, makes it a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows normal usage with 26,755 miles over 20 years, averaging 7,772 miles/year, which is consistent with UK driving.

Things to check

  • MOT not valid since 2024-06-26 — cannot be legally driven.
  • Recurring major failures in brakes (2019, 2023) and steering (2010, 2023).
  • Recurring suspension advisories (2019, 2021, 2023) and subframe corrosion (2021).
  • Multiple advisories for ball joints, anti-roll bar linkages, and exhaust system (2023).

Working in its favour

  • Consistent, normal annual mileage for its age (7,772 miles/year).
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or suspicious mileage readings.
  • The 2017 Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars indicates a safe vehicle.
  • The vehicle has a long, documented service history from 2004–2011.
