This 2016 Vauxhall has 9 MOT tests on record with a 89% pass rate and 18,195 miles. The timing belt is a significant upcoming cost for this model.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage, averaging 4,919 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 10-year history.
Things to check
- Recent MOT failure: Steering failure on 2025-02-17, immediately retested and passed.
- Timing belt replacement: Due to age (2016) and mileage, this is a significant upcoming cost (£500-£800).
- Low annual mileage: 4,919 miles/yr suggests limited use, which can lead to fluid degradation.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 1 historical failure
- Valid MOT until 2027-03-10, offering peace of mind for several years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,919 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
