VAUXHALL INSIGNIA2013 · 2.0L Diesel

The 2013 Vauxhall Insignia presents a stable roadworthiness trend. The most recent test on 30 June 2025 at 149,343 miles returned a pass with no defects recorded, following clean passes on 5 July 2024 and 4 July 2023 at 113,666 miles. The vehicle shows no worsening mechanical faults across the available five-year record, and the maintenance pattern reads as consistent rather than reactive. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a thirteen-year-old car, averaging roughly 11,488 miles per year against the 149,343 miles recorded. The jump from 95,158 miles at the 29 June 2022 test to 113,666 miles by 4 July 2023 shows about 18,500 miles in that period, slightly above the annual norm but not abnormal. The record is sparse yet clean, with only a single failure logged on 3 July 2023 at 113,666 miles that was reversed the next day with no defects cited, suggesting an administrative rejection rather than a mechanical fault. A buyer should still commission an independent inspection of suspension bushes, coil springs, and brake discs given the age and mileage, as the MOT record does not capture wear below failure thresholds. Structural corrosion around subframes and sills warrants physical checks despite the absence of advisories. The clean history implies previous owners kept basic upkeep current, but high-mileage Vauxhall drivetrain components such as the timing chain and turbocharger should be assessed for fatigue not visible in MOT data.
