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

This 2015 Vauxhall has 12 MOT tests on record with a 67% pass rate and 34,338 miles. However, a significant pattern of recurring steering and tyre issues, coupled with a recent advisory for engine oil, warrants careful consideration.

The mileage trajectory is consistent, averaging 9,946 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or implausible spikes, showing normal usage.

Things to check

  • Recurring steering/suspension failures (ball joint, track rod end) across multiple tests.
  • Persistent tyre wear advisories and a DANGEROUS bulge defect in Aug 2020.
  • Engine oil leak advisory noted in Aug 2020 and again in Apr 2026.
  • Brake pedal anti-slip provision missing in Aug 2020, a safety-critical failure.

Working in its favour

  • Euro NCAP (2017): 5-star safety rating.
  • Most recent MOT passed despite 4 historical failures
  • Valid MOT until April 2027, offering significant peace of mind.
  • Consistent, normal mileage for its age, indicating regular use.
