AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2011 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 21,825 miles. The vehicle's age and mileage anomalies, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, present a significant risk.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before April 2016 (129 mi/yr equivalent), followed by normal usage, but this early period is highly irregular and warrants investigation.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS tyre defects recorded on 2014-11-28 and 2015-11-19, indicating severe neglect.
- Recurring brake advisories (Sep 2020, Sep 2024) and suspension advisories (Sep 2024) signal chronic wear.
- Multiple major failures for lights (Sep 2021, Sep 2023) and windscreen wipers (Sep 2021, Sep 2023) point to poor maintenance.
- The 2014-11-28 test shows a child seat obstructing belt inspection and internal headlight adjuster tampering, raising serious safety concerns.
Working in its favour
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until September 2026, indicating it is currently roadworthy.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a generally safe vehicle design.
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,088 miles/year since 2016, aligning with UK average.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOT (Sep 2025), suggesting current compliance.
