2018 Vauxhall Insignia 1.6L Diesel · EO68 AKZ

The vehicle is currently roadworthy, but the maintenance trend reveals a reactive rather than proactive approach. While it passed its latest test in August 2025 at 190,943 miles, it had failed earlier that same day due to a nearside rear tyre being below the legal limit and a malfunctioning tyre pressure monitoring system. This pattern suggests that the owner only addresses mechanical faults when forced to by an MOT failure, rather than performing routine preventative checks. This 2018 Vauxhall Insignia has covered exceptionally high mileage, averaging nearly 24,000 miles per year over its eight-year life. The data shows significant usage between August 2022 and August 2025, where the vehicle clocked 39,275 miles in just three years. This high rate of travel places immense strain on the drivetrain, suspension components, and braking system. The rapid accumulation of nearly 200,000 miles increases the likelihood of accelerated wear on components that are not fully captured during a standard MOT inspection. A buyer must conduct a thorough inspection of the suspension and alignment, as the recurring reports of tyres worn uneven on the edges in 2022, 2024, and 2025 indicate persistent issues with wheel geometry or worn suspension bushes. The repeated presence of a damaged windscreen across multiple years further highlights a lack of attention to minor maintenance. Given the high mileage, specific attention should be paid to the turbocharger, clutch wear, and the structural integrity of the underbody, as these components often reach the end of their service life at this interval.
