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 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 29,596 miles. While most issues were resolved, the consistent need for repairs suggests a higher ongoing maintenance burden.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 7,492 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausibly low annual usage, indicating normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring major failures: Emissions (Aug 2024), Steering (Aug 2022, Aug 2023), and Lights (Aug 2023, Aug 2024) show a history of neglect.
  • Recurring advisories: Tyres (7 advisories), CV boot (3 advisories), Exhaust (2 advisories), and Washer (2 advisories) indicate chronic wear items.
  • Multiple suspension failures: Macpherson strut excessive movement (Sep 2016, Aug 2017) and brake imbalance (Aug 2024) point to structural wear.
  • Recent major failure: Emissions failure in Aug 2024, just before the latest pass, suggests a very recent repair.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until June 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its 13-year age, indicating regular use without suspicious gaps.
  • All major failures were promptly rectified, passing retests within days or weeks, showing responsive ownership.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering, with consistent annual increments.
