This 2009 Vauxhall has 20 MOT tests on record with a 70% pass rate and 18,785 miles. The vehicle's mileage has also been suspiciously low for several years, raising serious ownership and maintenance concerns.

The vehicle recorded suspiciously low mileage of 246 miles/year between Feb 2021 and Feb 2024, followed by a significant drop in annual usage, indicating potential periods of inactivity or deliberate underreporting.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS defect: Tyres failed on 2019-07-19, indicating critical safety neglect.
  • DANGEROUS defect: Windscreen failed on 2019-07-19, showing a history of safety-critical issues.
  • Recurring exhaust advisories (2018, 2023) escalated to MAJOR failure in Dec 2023.
  • Recurring suspension advisories (2014, 2024) escalated to MAJOR failure in Sep 2014.

Working in its favour

  • Current MOT is valid until March 2027, indicating it is roadworthy for now.
  • No recent MOT failures or advisories, suggesting current owner has addressed issues.
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) indicates a generally safe vehicle design.
  • Consistent annual mileage before 2021, suggesting regular use in its early life.
