This 2018 Vauxhall has 7 MOT tests on record with a 71% pass rate and 21,930 miles. However, a clear pattern of recurring tyre issues and a recent dangerous defect on the same tyre, combined with a major emissions failure, raises significant concerns about maintenance and potential underlying problems.
The vehicle shows consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 6,994 miles/year, with no suspicious drops or spikes, indicating genuine usage.
Things to check
- Dangerous tyre defect (cut to ply) on 2025-11-30 MOT, indicating severe neglect.
- Major emissions failure on 2022-11-30 MOT, suggesting potential engine or exhaust system issues.
- Recurring tyre advisories and failures across 5 tests (Nov 2022, Dec 2023, Dec 2023, Dec 2023, Nov 2025) point to chronic maintenance neglect.
- Brake pad advisory noted on 2025-11-30 MOT, indicating imminent replacement cost.
Working in its favour
- Most recent MOT passed despite 2 historical failures
- Valid MOT until 2026-12-18, providing immediate peace of mind.
- Consistent, normal annual mileage averaging 6,994 miles/year, no fraud indicators.
- No recurring major mechanical failures (e.g., engine, gearbox) in the MOT history.
