2014 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · DL14 AAU

The Vauxhall Insignia shows a roadworthy status with a stable maintenance trend, confirmed by the most recent DVSA test on 7 December 2024 at 186,216 miles, some nineteen months before the current date of 14 July 2026, returning a pass with no defects recorded. Earlier tests on 1 December 2023 at 152,003 miles, 9 December 2022 at 130,258 miles, 10 December 2021 at 114,753 miles, and 17 December 2020 at 108,091 miles each yielded passes with zero advisories. This unbroken sequence of clean results demonstrates the vehicle has avoided recurring mechanical or structural faults across five consecutive winters. The car is a 2014 model with roughly twelve years of service and a high overall mileage for its age. Odometer readings climbed from 108,091 in December 2020 to 186,216 by December 2024, averaging near 15,500 miles annually. The final year alone added 34,213 miles, a marked acceleration from the prior year's 22,245-mile increment. No testing gaps appear beyond the standard yearly interval, and the sparse yet clean record implies previous owners addressed required work before each test rather than letting wear escalate. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of key wear components despite the absent MOT flags. The tester recorded no worn suspension bushes or fractured coil springs, yet at 186,216 miles these parts demand hands-on checks for fatigue. Inspect brake discs for scoring and confirm calipers are free from binding, as high mileage invites thermal wear. Examine the subframe and sill sections for structural corrosion that a brief test may overlook. Minor consumables such as tyres and wiper blades will require routine renewal, but the history reveals no serious mechanical or structural defects.
