AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2010 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 93% pass rate and 24,178 miles. Despite a recent clean MOT, the extensive period of unrecorded history makes this vehicle too risky to purchase.
The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 4,740 miles/year, with a significant 5-year gap (2017-2023) in MOT records, making mileage trajectory impossible to verify.
Things to check
- Critical 16-year MOT history gap from 2017 to 2023 — no recorded roadworthiness.
- No MOT tests recorded from 2017 to 2023, a major safety concern for a 16-year-old vehicle.
- Extremely low annual mileage (4,740 mi/yr) for a 2010 car, raising questions about its true condition.
- Dangerous brake failure (Jun 2022) and suspension failure (Apr 2024) indicate past neglect.
Working in its favour
- Current valid MOT until February 2027, indicating it passed its most recent test.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current roadworthiness is acceptable.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) confirms high safety standards for its model year.
- Low overall mileage (24,178 mi) suggests less wear and tear on mechanical components.
