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 73% pass rate and 8,646 miles. The extremely low mileage for its age, combined with a high number of advisories and failures, makes this vehicle a high-risk purchase.

The vehicle shows extremely low annual usage, averaging only 3,955 miles per year, with a significant 13-year gap from registration to its first MOT in 2016.

Things to check

  • DANGEROUS brake failure on 2023-09-08, indicating severe neglect.
  • DANGEROUS suspension failure on 2023-09-08, pointing to chronic structural issues.
  • Engine MIL inoperative or indicates a malfunction on 2023-09-08, a major safety concern.
  • Recurring brake pad advisories (2021, 2022) escalated to dangerous failures (2023).

Working in its favour

  • Valid MOT until 2026-09-08, indicating current roadworthiness.
  • No evidence of outstanding finance (HPI check needed).
  • Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) suggests good inherent safety.
  • Consistent retesting and immediate rectification of failures, showing owner's attempts to address issues.
