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 18 MOT tests on record with a 72% pass rate and 21,356 miles. While mileage is consistent, the high number of advisories and failures for a 15-year-old vehicle warrants significant caution.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, showing normal usage of 7,102 miles/year, with a significant drop in annual usage (1,940 miles in 2023-2024) followed by a return to normal, but no fraud detected.
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in suspension (coil springs, shock absorbers) across multiple tests.
- Persistent brake system issues, including dangerous defects and recurring advisories.
- Five DANGEROUS tyre failures and numerous brake failures in 2015-2016 MOTs.
- A 2020 service gap is noted, suggesting potential periods of neglect or off-road use.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-05-19, indicating current roadworthiness.
- Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage manipulation.
- No recent major failures or advisories on the most recent MOTs.
