AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 17,332 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 1 DANGEROUS defect, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 3,330 miles/year, with a significant drop to 942 miles between Aug 2024 and Feb 2025, raising odometer integrity concerns.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Feb 2026): Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm (5.2.3 (e))
- DANGEROUS tyre defect recorded on 2017-07-27 (first MOT) — a critical safety failure.
- Recurring brake failures (2017-07-27) and advisories (Aug 2023) indicate a systemic weakness.
- Recurring steering failures (Aug 2023) and advisories (Aug 2022) point to chronic suspension issues.
Working in its favour
- MOT valid until 2027-02-20, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring failures on engine, gearbox, or major structural components.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
- Mileage is consistently low, suggesting light use and potentially lower wear on some components.
