AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2002 Vauxhall has 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 32,492 miles. While mileage is low for its age, the vehicle's age and the number of advisories and failures warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,518 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures: Brakes (4 failures), Tyres (3 failures), Emissions (2 failures), and Windscreen (1 failure) across multiple years.
  • Persistent advisories: Suspension (6 advisories) and Bodywork (2 advisories) show consistent wear, not isolated incidents.
  • Recent MOT expiry: The MOT expired in 2017, meaning the vehicle has been off-road for 7+ years, likely requiring significant checks.
  • Age-related wear: A 24-year-old vehicle with such a history of recurring failures is a high-risk purchase.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
  • Consistent mileage: The vehicle has consistently low annual mileage, averaging 6,518 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • No odometer fraud: Mileage readings are consistent with no suspicious drops or spikes, suggesting genuine low usage.
  • Immediate retests: Many failures were immediately rectified, showing responsive ownership and attempts to maintain roadworthiness.
