AI analysis by CarGPT, generated 11 June 2026 from this vehicle's MOT record. Not professional advice — always inspect before buying.
This 2009 Vauxhall has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 32,379 miles. While mileage is consistent, the repeated advisories for subframe corrosion and exhaust issues are significant concerns for a 17-year-old vehicle.
The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 8,856 miles per year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage for its age.
Things to check
- Recurring subframe corrosion advisories (Oct 2021, Oct 2022, Oct 2023) indicate a long-term structural concern.
- Multiple suspension failures (Oct 2015, Oct 2021) and coil spring fractures (Oct 2015, Oct 2025) suggest chronic wear.
- Brake system failures (Oct 2022, Oct 2023) and disc wear advisories (Oct 2014, Oct 2014) point to ongoing maintenance needs.
- Exhaust advisories (Oct 2024, Oct 2025) are a recurring issue, suggesting a persistent problem.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 6 historical failures
- The vehicle has a valid MOT until October 2026, providing immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
