VAUXHALL CORSA2012 · 1.4L Petrol

This vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a clean MOT history. The most recent test on 23 October 2025 at 69,817 miles resulted in a pass with no defects recorded. While the record shows a failure on the same day, the lack of listed defects suggests a clerical error or a minor administrative issue rather than a mechanical failure. The mileage is exceptionally low for a 2012 model, averaging under 5,000 miles per year. A concerning discrepancy appears between the October 2024 test at 69,950 miles and the October 2025 test at 69,817 miles. This reduction in recorded mileage indicates either a clerical error by the tester or a potential odometer rollback. The usage pattern between November 2022 at 62,019 miles and October 2023 at 63,058 miles shows the car spent a significant period stationary. Low-mileage vehicles that sit for long intervals often suffer from perished rubber components and seized calipers. A buyer should physically inspect the suspension bushes and coil springs for cracking or corrosion. Check the brake discs for surface rust and ensure the calipers are not binding, as infrequent use often leads to seized sliders. Verify the odometer reading against the service history to resolve the mileage discrepancy noted in the 2024 and 2025 tests. Inspect the tyres for age-related cracking or flat spots, even if the tread depth remains legal. Given the lack of reported advisories over the last five years, the mechanical integrity appears sound, provided the vehicle has not suffered from long-term storage degradation.
