VAUXHALL ADAM2016 · 1.4L PETROL

The vehicle presents a high level of roadworthiness with a remarkably stable maintenance trend. The most recent MOT conducted on 07 May 2026 at 16,427 miles passed with no defects or advisories, continuing a streak of clean results spanning the last five recorded tests. This consistency suggests that the vehicle has been maintained to a high standard and has not suffered from recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. The mileage pattern is exceptionally low for a ten-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 1,643 miles per year. Between June 2022 at 12,609 miles and May 2026 at 16,427 miles, the car covered only 3,818 miles over a four-year period. While this low usage indicates minimal wear on high-friction components like the engine, gearbox, and drivetrain, the lack of frequent use can lead to specific issues that do not always manifest as immediate failures during a stationary MOT test. A buyer should focus their physical inspection on components affected by long-term sitting. Low-mileage cars often suffer from flat-spotted tyres, perished rubber, and seized brake calipers due to lack of motion. The tester found no faults this year, but a manual check of the brake discs for surface corrosion and the suspension bushes for cracking or cracking is necessary. Additionally, the condition of the fluids and rubber belts should be verified, as these components degrade over time regardless of the mileage recorded.
