AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2012 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 59% pass rate and 13,446 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with recurring advisories and a 2-year MOT gap, makes this a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 5,037 miles per year, with a significant 2-year MOT gap in 2020-2021 and inconsistent readings since.
Things to check
- MOT HISTORY: 7 failures and 16 major defects across lights, brakes, and suspension.
- MILEAGE GAPS: 2-year MOT gap (2020-2021) and inconsistent readings since.
- RECURRING ADVISORIES: 16 advisories on tyres, engine oil, and seatbelts across multiple tests.

Working in its favour
