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 4 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 9,961 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the extremely low usage and past failure warrant a thorough investigation.

The vehicle shows only 14,176 miles over 15 years, averaging 2,678 miles/year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles/year and raises odometer integrity concerns.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 14,176 miles over 15 years (Apr 2016).
  • 2016-04-16 MOT failure for Nearside Front Headlamp not working on dipped beam.
  • MOT expired 2017-04-24; current status is 'Not valid' (as of report date).
  • Very low annual usage (2,678 miles/yr) suggests potential neglect or long periods of inactivity.

Working in its favour

  • No recurring failures or advisories on critical safety systems (brakes, suspension, steering).
  • Single 2016 headlamp failure was immediately rectified and passed retest on the same day.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good overall safety features.
  • No evidence of Cat N/S write-off or outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
