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

This 2005 Vauxhall has 25 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 14,137 miles. This fundamental issue makes the vehicle's true condition and value unassessable.

The mileage trajectory is highly suspicious: 56,962 miles in Apr 2019, then a massive 273,060-mile jump to 330,022 miles in Jun 2020, followed by a 271,850-mile decrease to 58,172 miles in May 2021, indicating potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between Jun 2020 (330,022 mi) and May 2021 (58,172 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • Mileage decreased by 271,850 miles between Jun 2020 (330,022 mi) and May 2021 (58,172 mi) — clear evidence of odometer tampering.
  • Mileage increased by 273,060 miles before Jun 2020 (330,022 mi vs 56,962 mi) — further evidence of tampering.
  • Unusually high mileage jump before Jun 2020

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until June 2027, indicating current roadworthiness despite mileage concerns.
  • No recurring major failures on safety-critical systems like brakes or suspension.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
