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 62% pass rate and 26,077 miles. While mileage is consistent, the pattern of neglect in critical safety systems demands thorough investigation.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,822 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but recent annual usage has been very low (e.g., 1,802 miles in 2023).
Things to check
- Recurring major failures: Windscreen (Dec 2018), Fuel System (Dec 2019), and Brakes (Dec 2019, 2020) indicate systemic neglect.
- Persistent tyre wear advisories: Nearside Front Tyre worn close to legal limit (Dec 2018, 2014, 2013) and rear tyre damage (Sep 2022, 2020) show chronic under-maintenance.
- Brake system deterioration: Front brake disc worn (Dec 2018, 2014, 2013) and pads thin (Sep 2014, 2013) point to a long history of poor maintenance.
- Lights and emissions recurring: Multiple light failures (Sep 2014, 2013) and emissions advisories (Sep 2024, 2022) suggest ongoing electrical and environmental issues.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until September 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage: 26,077 miles in 15 years, averaging 8,822 miles/year, aligns with UK usage.
- No recent major failures: The last MOT in Sep 2025 passed after addressing exhaust and engine oil advisories.
- Euro NCAP rating: 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a safe and reliable vehicle for its era.
