This 2017 Vauxhall has 10 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 23,134 miles. However, a pattern of recurring seatbelt issues and a recent timing belt failure are significant concerns that warrant careful investigation.
The vehicle shows consistent, low annual mileage averaging 7,677 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating normal usage.
Things to check
- 2026-01-27: Timing belt failure recorded; verify repair receipt.
- 2026-01-27: Seatbelt advisory recurring (2021, 2021, 2022, 2024, 2025, 2026).
- 2026-01-27: Recent major emissions failure (2024, 2025, 2026).
- 2026-01-27: Recent major windscreen wiper failure (2021, 2021, 2022, 2024, 2025, 2026).
Working in its favour
- Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
- Most recent MOT passed despite 3 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2027-02-03, offering peace of mind for the next two years.
- Consistent, low annual mileage (7,677 mi/yr) suggests light use and less wear.
