AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2017 Vauxhall has 9 MOT tests on record with a 78% pass rate and 9,986 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT record, the recurring position lamp advisory and very low annual usage warrant a thorough investigation.
The vehicle shows very low usage, averaging 2,614 miles/year, with a significant anomaly: 23,942 miles recorded in Feb 2026, which is unusually low for a 2017 car.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 23,942 mi (Feb 2026) — bottom 10% for age.
- Recurring position lamp advisory (Feb 2022, Feb 2022) — indicates a persistent electrical fault.
- Very low annual mileage (2,614 mi/yr) for a 2017 car is a significant red flag.
- Potential timing belt/chain wear due to low mileage and age — £500–£800.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until March 2027 — no immediate retesting required.
- No major structural failures or recurring dangerous defects recorded.
