This 2017 Vauxhall has 8 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 7,340 miles. The very low annual usage (2,039 miles/year) is a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 7,340 miles in Aug 2020, then only 10,995 miles in the next 3 years (Aug 2022), and a total of 17,425 miles by Jul 2025. This is a clear red flag for potential odometer tampering.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 17,425 miles over 9 years (typical: 59,294 miles, n=136 Vauxhall 2017s).
- Mileage anomaly: 7,340 miles (Aug 2020), then 11,995 miles (Aug 2022), and 17,425 miles (Jul 2025) — suspiciously low.
- Recurring steering/suspension advisories: Track rod end ball joint dust cover insecure (Jul 2025 FAIL), and steering minor defects (Jul 2025 PASS).
- Brake disc wear advisory recurring: Nearside Front Brake disc worn (Jul 2025 FAIL), and Nearside Front Brake disc worn (Jul 2025 PASS).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 08/09/2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No major recurring failures on critical safety systems (brakes, steering, suspension) — only advisories.
- Low overall mileage (17,425 miles) suggests minimal wear and tear on engine/drivetrain.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates high safety standards for its age.
