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 17 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 17,528 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a recent significant mileage spike, raises serious questions about its true condition and maintenance.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage (394 mi/yr equivalent) before Jan 2019, followed by a significant 15,942 mi/yr equivalent jump before Mar 2026, indicating a major discrepancy in its usage history.

Things to check

  • AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Mar 2026): Tyre tread depth below requirements of 1.6mm BOTH FRONT (5.2.3 (e))
  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2025-03-31 after 10+ years of advisories.
  • DANGEROUS tyre failure on 2021-03-01 after 6+ years of advisories.
  • Recurring subframe corrosion advisories from 2021-03-01 to 2026-03-31.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-31, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
  • Consistent annual mileage increases since 2019, despite initial low usage.
