This 2013 Vauxhall has 14 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 43,283 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, especially between 2013 and 2022, raises significant questions about its past usage and potential neglect.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage for its age, averaging only 6,622 miles/year, with a suspiciously low 95 miles recorded between 2013 and 2022, indicating a period of prolonged inactivity or very light use.
Things to check
- Extremely low mileage for a 2013 car (43,283 miles over 13 years) suggests prolonged inactivity or neglect.
- Recurring tyre advisories (4 tests) escalated to a major failure in Sep 2024, indicating chronic wear.
- Recurring brake pad advisories (4 tests) across 3 years (2017, 2019, 2020) points to consistent wear.
- The electrical system failed in Sep 2024, though no subsequent advisories were noted.
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-09-25, providing immediate peace of mind.
- No major structural failures or dangerous defects recorded in the MOT history.
