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 12 MOT tests on record with a 83% pass rate and 13,029 miles. While it has a clean recent MOT pass, the recurring tyre advisories and a major suspension failure in 2019 warrant careful consideration.
The vehicle shows extremely low mileage of 26,921 miles over 13 years, with a significant drop in annual usage (e.g., +746 miles from Oct 2021 to Oct 2022), indicating potential odometer fraud or unreported usage.
Things to check
- Mileage significantly below UK average: 26,921 miles over 13 years (Oct 2025) — a major red flag for potential odometer fraud.
- Major suspension failure recorded on 2019-10-21 (Offside Front Upper Macpherson strut) — a significant structural wear item.
- Recurring tyre advisories across 4 tests (Oct 2018, 2019) — consistent wear pattern suggests poor maintenance or alignment issues.
- Recurring brake advisories across 2 tests (Oct 2019) — indicates a pattern of wear that needs monitoring.
Working in its favour
- Valid MOT until 2026-10-29 — no immediate retesting required.
- No recent MOT failures or advisories — the car passed its most recent test (Oct 2025).
- Euro NCAP safety rating of 5/5 stars (2017) — indicates a well-designed and safe vehicle.
- Consistent annual mileage increases (if genuine) suggest a single owner or light use.
