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 21 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 14,580 miles. The recurring suspension and tyre advisories, combined with a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, present a critical contradiction.
The vehicle shows suspiciously low mileage before Feb 2020 (348 mi/yr equivalent) and again before Apr 2023 (222 mi/yr equivalent), followed by a significant increase in annual usage.
Things to check
- DANGEROUS defect: Offside Rear Tyre worn close to legal limit/worn on edge (Feb 2019).
- DANGEROUS defect: Nearside Rear Outer Tyre has ply or cords exposed (Apr 2026).
- DANGEROUS defect: Offside Front Brake disc in such a condition that it is seriously weakened (Apr 2026).
- DANGEROUS defect: Front Brakes imbalanced across an axle by more than 50% Axle 1 (Apr 2026).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
