This 2018 Vauxhall has 9 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 29,897 miles. The recurring tyre advisories and inconsistent mileage further complicate its assessment.
The vehicle shows normal usage with 29,897 miles over 8 years, but there is a significant drop in annual mileage from 2022 onwards, suggesting periods of low use or potential issues.
