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 14 MOT tests on record with a 86% pass rate and 18,003 miles. Recurring suspension and brake advisories, combined with a 2024 service gap, raise significant concerns about long-term maintenance and potential hidden issues.

The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 18,003 miles over 15 years, averaging only 3,088 miles per year, which is significantly below the UK average of 8,000 miles per year.

Things to check

  • Mileage significantly below UK average: 18,003 miles over 15 years (Jan 2011).
  • Recurring suspension advisories (coil spring, steering rack) across multiple tests.
  • Recurring brake advisories (worn close to limit) in 2014 and 2016 tests.
  • 2024 MOT gap suggests possible SORN or unrecorded off-road use.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-02-09, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No major failures recorded in the recent MOT history.
  • Consistent, albeit low, annual mileage trajectory.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) for this model.
