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 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 21,498 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, recurring tyre advisories and a major failure for inadequate service brake effort are notable concerns.
The vehicle shows very low usage averaging 2,787 miles/year, with a critical anomaly of 21,498 miles recorded in July 2016, significantly below UK average.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 36,640 mi (Feb 2026) vs typical 80,948 mi for a 13-year-old VAUXHALL.
- Major failure for inadequate service brake effort (Offside Front) on 2024-01-04.
- Recurring tyre advisories (Jul 2019) escalated to a major failure (Jan 2024).
- Engine oil advisory noted in 5 separate MOT tests (persistent issue).
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-18, indicating current roadworthiness.
- No recurring failures on safety-critical systems like brakes or steering.
- Clean recent MOT pass on 2026-02-19 with no major defects.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
