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

This 2013 Vauxhall has 15 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 16,680 miles. While mileage is low, the history of neglect in critical safety systems demands thorough investigation.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual mileage averaging 4,008 miles/year, with a significant 2019 service gap and inconsistent usage patterns that warrant careful verification.

Things to check

  • Recurring DANGEROUS tyre failures (Nov 2018, Jan 2021) and brake pad wear (Nov 2018, Jan 2021) indicate systemic neglect.
  • Major suspension failures (coil springs, Jan 2023, Jan 2025) and recurring advisories suggest ongoing structural wear.
  • Engine oil and emissions advisories (Nov 2018, Jan 2021) are recurring, pointing to potential underlying engine issues.
  • The 2019 MOT gap is a significant red flag, suggesting periods of inactivity or lack of maintenance.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 5 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until 2027-01-18, offering immediate peace of mind for roadworthiness.
  • Consistent, low annual mileage (4,008 mi/yr) suggests light use and potential longevity.
