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 12,686 miles. The timing belt is a known model weakness, and the low annual mileage for its age warrants careful investigation.
The vehicle shows consistently low annual mileage averaging 4,407 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating light usage.
Things to check
- Recurring subframe corrosion advisories (Dec 2018, 2020, 2022, 2025) suggest ongoing structural issues.
- Front brake disc wear advisory (Dec 2018) and subsequent failure (Dec 2025) indicates a recurring brake system concern.
- Low annual mileage (4,407 mi/yr) for a 2013 vehicle may indicate limited use or potential long-term storage.
- Timing belt replacement is a known model-specific cost, typically due every 60k–80k miles.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-23, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (4,407 mi/yr) suggests light use and potentially lower wear.
