This 2012 Vauxhall has 10 MOT tests on record with a 80% pass rate and 26,500 miles. The vehicle's SORN status and lack of recent MOT validity require careful consideration.
The mileage trajectory shows normal usage, averaging 10,192 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, though a significant 14-month gap in 2021 is noted.
Things to check
- 2018-11-27: Major failure for imbalanced front brakes and excessively binding rear service brakes.
- 2018-11-27: Advisory for worn front brake discs and thin pads, a recurring issue.
- 2019-11-30: Major failure for excessively binding offside rear service brake.
- 2023-01-05: Recent advisory for worn tyres, a recurring safety concern.
Working in its favour
- Recent clean MOT pass on 2023-01-05, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious anomalies or drops.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
- Euro NCAP 5-star safety rating for 2017 model provides strong safety credentials.
