AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2018 Vauxhall has 10 MOT tests on record with a 60% pass rate and 28,313 miles. The recurring nature of these critical safety components, combined with a high number of dangerous failures, makes this vehicle an extremely high-risk purchase.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 10,814 miles/year, with no anomalies or suspicious drops detected across 10 MOT tests.
Things to check
- AUTO-FLAGGED: DANGEROUS defect (Jan 2025): Nearside Front Brake pad(s) less than 1.5 mm thick (1.1.13 (a) (ii))
- 6 DANGEROUS brake defects recorded across multiple MOT tests (Jan 2023, Jan 2024, Jan 2025).
- 4 major failures for brakes and tyres, indicating a pattern of critical safety component neglect.
- Recurring tyre advisories escalating to major failures (Jan 2022, Jan 2023, Jan 2025).
Working in its favour
- Consistent annual mileage averaging 10,814 miles/year, indicating regular use.
- No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage discrepancies across 10 MOT tests.
- MOT valid until 2027-01-22, providing immediate peace of mind for the next 3 years.
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests a generally safe underlying platform.
