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 13 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 37,861 miles. While it has a valid MOT, the past issues and inconsistent usage warrant a thorough investigation.

The mileage shows a suspiciously low 16 miles/year equivalent before May 2017, followed by a significant drop to 124 miles/year equivalent before April 2023, indicating a major usage anomaly.

Things to check

  • Major steering failure on 2016-04-27 (test 68,246MI) — power steering malfunctioning.
  • Significant mileage anomaly: 16 mi/yr (May 2017) and 124 mi/yr (Apr 2023) — inconsistent usage.
  • Major tyre failure on 2015-04-01 (test 52,545MI) — Nearside Front Tyre tread depth below 1.6mm.
  • Major steering failure on 2016-04-27 (test 68,246MI) — Electronic power steering warning lamp indicates a failure.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2024-04-05, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No recurring major failures on the same system after the initial 2016 steering failure.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 7,373 miles/year since 2018, aligning with UK average.
  • No recent advisories or failures on the 2023-04-01 MOT test.
