This 2002 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 53% pass rate and 50,092 miles. The mileage trajectory is also highly suspicious, indicating potential fraud.

The mileage shows a suspiciously low 137 miles/year from 2002 to 2014, followed by normal usage, indicating a potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • MOT expired 2015-08-04; vehicle has no valid MOT since then.

  • 8 major failures across 17 tests, including 11 light failures.
  • 8 major failures across 17 tests, including 8 emissions failures.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates good safety features.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current roadworthiness.
  • Consistent annual mileage of 7,822 miles/yr since 2014, aligning with UK average.
