AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2013 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 23,014 miles. However, a pattern of recurring failures and advisories, particularly in the brake and tyre systems, indicates a need for thorough inspection.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,058 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring brake system advisories across 3 separate tests (Jun 2020, Jun 2021, Jul 2023).
  • Recurring tyre wear advisories across 3 separate tests (Jun 2023, Jul 2023, Jun 2025).
  • Recurring headlamp issues (Jun 2019, Jun 2022, Jun 2024) and exhaust leaks (Jun 2024).
  • Four test failures in 12 MOTs, with 3 of those being major failures for lights and suspension.

Working in its favour

  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2026-07-06, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent annual mileage averaging 8,058 miles/year, indicating normal usage.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies in the MOT history.
