AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.

This 2006 Vauxhall has 24 MOT tests on record with a 75% pass rate and 10,567 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a 20-year history of recurring issues, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage, averaging only 4,346 miles per year, with suspiciously low usage (238 mi/yr equivalent) recorded before Mar 2025 and (163 mi/yr equivalent) before Feb 2026.

Things to check

  • Extremely low mileage for a 20-year-old vehicle (10,567 mi over 20 years).
  • Recurring major failures in brakes (7 times), suspension (3 times), and emissions (3 times).
  • Persistent advisories for subframe corrosion across 7 separate tests since Feb 2020.
  • Multiple recurring advisories for brake system components (hoses, pipes, discs) across 5 tests.

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2027-03-19, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of odometer fraud or mileage tampering in the provided MOT history.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety features.
  • No recent major structural failures or dangerous defects flagged in the latest MOT.
