AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2015 Vauxhall has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 17,135 miles. The pattern of repeated issues, including a dangerous timing chain fault reported by the community, makes this vehicle too risky to purchase.
The vehicle shows normal, consistent usage averaging 7,096 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or spikes in the 11 MOT tests.
Things to check
- Dangerous timing chain fault reported by community — high risk of engine failure.
- Recurring major failures in lights (4 times) and suspension (2 times) across 11 MOTs.
- Persistent advisories on engine oil, coolant, brakes, and tyres across multiple tests.
- Recent June 2025 MOT pass followed by immediate retest and pass, suggesting borderline condition.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 7,096 miles/year.
- Valid MOT until June 2026, providing immediate peace of mind.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies.
