2014 Vauxhall Corsa 1.2L Petrol · FL64 ACU

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy following the most recent test on 9 December 2025 at 99,288 miles, where the tester recorded a pass with no defects. The maintenance trend is stable across the three years of available records, with no advisories or mechanical faults flagged at any stage. The vehicle cleared its December 2025 examination without issue after a failed attempt three days earlier on 6 December 2025 at the same mileage, though that failure listed no defects, indicating an administrative or documentation anomaly rather than a mechanical concern. Mileage progression sits within typical bounds for a 2014 vehicle. The record shows 90,164 miles at the 7 December 2023 test, rising to 95,104 miles by 11 December 2024 and 99,288 miles by December 2025. This equates to roughly 4,000 to 5,000 miles annually over the logged period, below the 8,274-mile yearly average implied by the lifetime figure, suggesting lighter recent use. The two failed tests on 11 December 2024 and 6 December 2025 both carried identical mileages to their same-day passes and recorded no defects, pointing to procedural rejections rather than deferred maintenance or wear-related faults. Given the clean defect history, no recurring suspension bushes, brake disc, corrosion, or exhaust emission issues appear in the data. The absence of advisories across all three years implies previous owners kept the car to a basic pass standard without flagged wear on consumables or structure. A buyer should still commission a physical inspection of structural integrity, underbody corrosion, and binding calipers, as MOT records with zero advisories often omit gradual wear not yet at test threshold. The repeated same-day fail-and-pass cycles at 95,104 and 99,288 miles show the vehicle was retested promptly, reflecting an owner addressing paperwork or minor presentation points without mechanical delay. No worsening pattern emerges. The Corsa stands as a low-risk used purchase on the evidence of its MOT trail, though independent verification of clutch, gearbox, and hidden rust remains prudent given the age.
