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 16 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 17,739 miles. The vehicle's low annual mileage for its age is also a significant concern.
The vehicle shows very low annual usage, averaging only 5,905 miles per year, with a significant drop in recent years (e.g., 702 miles between May 2022 and May 2023).
Things to check
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jul 2020) escalated to major failures (Sep 2022).
- Electrical system failure (Jul 2021) is a concern for a 15-year-old vehicle.
- Significant drop in annual mileage (e.g., 702 miles May 2022-May 2023) is unusual.
- Multiple suspension advisories (Jul 2020, Sep 2022) without corresponding failures suggest wear.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until June 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent mileage trajectory, despite low annual usage, shows no signs of tampering.
- No major recurring failures on critical safety systems like brakes or steering.
