This 2016 Vauxhall has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 21,382 miles. While these were addressed, the repeated warnings suggest a need for thorough inspection.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 6,540 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, and a recent spike in usage from 2024 onwards.
Things to check
- Recurring brake disc advisories (Jul 2019) and tyre wear (Aug 2022, Sep 2025) indicate ongoing wear items.
- Offside Front Coil spring fractured (Sep 2023) and Track rod end ball joint (Sep 2023) failures show past suspension issues.
- Multiple MINOR light defects (Sep 2021, Aug 2022) and wiper advisories (Sep 2021, Aug 2022) suggest a pattern of neglected maintenance.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until September 2026 provides immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal mileage for its age (6,540 mi/yr) suggests light use.
- No major recurring failures on safety-critical systems like brakes or steering since the initial failures were rectified.
