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 16 MOT tests on record with a 69% pass rate and 36,035 miles. While many issues were addressed, the sheer volume of advisories and the timing belt's known issues warrant a thorough inspection.

Mileage is consistent, averaging 10,391 miles/year, with a notable drop in 2020 (4,547 miles in 12 months) and a subsequent spike in 2023 (13,743 miles in 12 months), but no fraud detected.

Things to check

  • Recurring tyre failures and advisories across 5+ tests (Oct 2018, Sep 2019, Oct 2021, Oct 2024) indicate chronic wear.
  • Brake disc wear advisories in 4 separate tests (Oct 2018, Sep 2019, Oct 2021, Oct 2024) show a persistent issue.
  • Multiple registration plate lamp failures (Oct 2018, Sep 2019, Oct 2021) suggest a recurring electrical fault.
  • The 2016-10-10 test shows a 'Nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively' failure.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until November 2026, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
  • Consistent mileage trajectory with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
  • All major failures were immediately rectified, showing the owner addressed critical issues promptly.
  • No DANGEROUS defects recorded in the MOT history, indicating no immediate safety hazards.
