AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2014 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 28,858 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated suspension, steering, and emissions issues point to a history of reactive maintenance.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 6,808 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, but recent annual usage has been very low (e.g., 1,983 miles in 2025).
Things to check
- Recurring major failures in suspension (Dec 2022, Dec 2023) and steering (Dec 2023, Dec 2024) indicate systemic neglect.
- Exhaust emissions advisories (Feb 2020, Feb 2020) and a lambda result close to limit (Feb 2020) suggest ongoing emissions issues.
- Four major failures for windscreen (Feb 2021, Dec 2024) and a recurring wiper advisory (Feb 2019, Feb 2022) highlight a pattern of basic maintenance neglect.
- The most recent MOT (Dec 2025) passed but carries an advisory for engine oil, a basic maintenance item.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until 2026-12-26, providing immediate peace of mind.
