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

This 2011 Vauxhall has 17 MOT tests on record with a 76% pass rate and 14,743 miles. This, combined with a history of dangerous brake and tyre failures, makes it an extremely high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows a critical 15-year mileage anomaly, averaging only 2,768 miles per year, with a reading of 14,743 miles on 2014-02-24 being implausibly low for its age.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 14,743 mi (Feb 2014) for a 2011 vehicle is highly suspicious.
  • Dangerous brake failure on 2020-01-20 (32,627 mi) after ADVISORY on 2019-01-19 (29,714 mi).
  • Dangerous tyre failure on 2023-01-23 (35,885 mi) after ADVISORY on 2021-01-10 (33,562 mi).
  • Recurring subframe corrosion advisories on 2024-01-23 and 2026-01-24 indicate ongoing structural concerns.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-01, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recent MOT failures, suggesting current safety standards are being met.
  • Consistent retest history shows issues were addressed promptly after failures.
  • Euro NCAP rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
