Our Verdict
Proceed with caution. While the mileage is relatively low for a 2011 vehicle, a history of recurring oil leaks and recent advisories regarding coolant leaks suggest potential maintenance neglect.
When viewing this Corsa, your primary focus should be on the engine bay and under the car. The MOT history shows a long-standing 'oil leak, but not excessive' advisory dating back to at least 2019, involving both the engine and gearbox. Ask the seller for proof of any recent repairs to address these leaks or the most recent coolant leak advisory.
Secondly, check the service history thoroughly. Given the history of component failures like coil springs, brake imbalances, and steering rack play, a consistent service regime is vital. Negotiate the price downwards if the coolant leak or oil leaks have not been professionally rectified, as these can escalate into more expensive repairs if left unaddressed.
