2017 Vauxhall Insignia 1.6L Diesel · DT17 AAV

This vehicle presents an exceptionally stable roadworthiness profile. The most recent MOT on 5 September 2025 at 107,493 miles resulted in a clean pass with no defects or advisories recorded. This mirrors the results of the previous four annual tests, indicating a consistent standard of mechanical upkeep and a lack of recurring faults. The mileage accumulation is steady and typical for a nine year old car. Between 29 September 2021 at 67,290 miles and the latest test in September 2025, the vehicle covered 40,203 miles. This averages to roughly 10,000 miles per year, suggesting regular use rather than prolonged periods of standing, which generally helps maintain engine health and prevents seals from perishing. The absence of any advisories across five years of testing is rare for a vehicle of this age and mileage. Usually, testers flag consumable wear such as thinning brake discs, worn suspension bushes, or tyre tread depth. The clean record suggests a proactive owner who likely replaced wear items before they reached the threshold of an MOT failure. A buyer should still perform a physical check of the underbody for surface corrosion, as MOT testers often overlook minor rust that does not compromise structural integrity. Given the mileage, a manual inspection of the gearbox transition and clutch feel is advised to ensure the drivetrain remains smooth. Checking the service history for oil change intervals will confirm if the mechanical care matches the clean MOT record.
