This 2006 Vauxhall has 25 MOT tests on record with a 68% pass rate and 23,543 miles. The vehicle's mileage trajectory is also highly suspicious, showing extremely low usage for many years.
The vehicle shows extremely low usage before May 2021, averaging only 414 miles per year, which is highly suspicious and indicates potential long periods of inactivity or deliberate under-reporting.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defects recorded on 2019-06-15 and 2021-05-13, indicating severe neglect.
- Recurring major suspension failures (2019-06-15, 2021-05-13, 2022-04-13) and advisories (2021-05-13, 2022-04-13) suggest chronic structural issues.
- Major emissions failures on 2020-10-13 and 2023-05-13, with advisories on 2020-10-13, point to ongoing environmental system problems.
- Major brake failures on 2020-10-13 and 2023-05-13, with advisories on 2020-10-13 and 2023-05-13, indicate a history of brake system neglect.
