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

This 2006 Vauxhall has 28 MOT tests on record with a 64% pass rate and 16,632 miles. While it has passed most tests, the repeated issues with critical safety components warrant a thorough inspection.

The vehicle shows a critical mileage anomaly: 120,438 miles in April 2019, then only 16,632 miles by May 2025, indicating a significant change in usage or potential odometer fraud.

Things to check

  • Recurring suspension advisories (coil springs, anti-roll bar links) across 7 tests from 2019–2025.
  • Recurring exhaust advisories (corrosion, loose sections) across 7 tests from 2019–2025.
  • Significant mileage anomaly: 120,438 miles in April 2019, then only 16,632 miles by May 2025.
  • Four test failures (Apr 2019, Jun 2020, Jun 2021, Jun 2024) with immediate retests, suggesting reactive repairs.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until June 2026, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history.
  • Consistent annual mileage of 6,972 miles/yr since 2019, well below UK average.
  • No recurring brake failures or major structural corrosion issues.
