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 20 MOT tests on record with a 55% pass rate. The vehicle's age and recurring issues make it a high-risk purchase.

A critical mileage anomaly exists: 923,444 miles were recorded on 2016-05-24, but only 94,936 miles were recorded on 2017-05-22, indicating possible odometer tampering.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: Odometer fraud signal: Mileage decreased between May 2016 (923,444 mi) and May 2017 (94,936 mi) — possible odometer tamperi
  • AUTO-FLAGGED: 3 test failures within 12 months (Nov 2020 – Nov 2020)
  • Mileage decreased significantly between 2016-05-24 (923,444 mi) and 2017-05-22 (94,936 mi).
  • 8 major failures across 15 MOT tests, including suspension, brakes, and emissions.

Working in its favour

  • The vehicle currently holds a valid MOT until 2026-11-13, indicating it is roadworthy now.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
  • Consistent annual mileage of ~9,980 miles/yr (pre-2017) aligns with typical UK usage.
  • No recent major failures or advisories in the last 2 years, suggesting some maintenance.
