2015 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · HN15 AAF

The vehicle’s most recent MOT on 2026-03-20 at 149,797 miles recorded a pass with no defects, suggesting a temporary resolution of prior issues. However, the preceding tests in 2026-02-27 (149,560 miles) and 2026-03-13 (148,777 miles) both failed without recorded defects, indicating inconsistent compliance. The pattern shows no clear trend of improvement or deterioration, as the failures occurred within a short timeframe and without specific mechanical notes. The latest pass does not confirm long-term reliability, given the prior instability. The vehicle’s mileage of 149,797 miles at 11 years old equates to approximately 13,618 annual miles, exceeding typical usage for its age. Notably, the 2025-03-07 test at 139,069 miles showed a pass, but two subsequent tests in March 2025 and February/March 2026 at similar mileages failed without defects. This suggests potential recording errors or unresolved issues. The rapid accumulation of 9,700 miles between 2025-03-07 and 2026-03-13 raises concerns about wear on components like suspension bushes, brake discs, and exhaust emissions, which may not have been adequately monitored. A buyer should prioritize inspecting the suspension system for worn coil springs or binding calipers, as high mileage increases the risk of such failures. The absence of defect records in failed tests warrants verification of MOT accuracy, potentially through DVSA archives. Structural corrosion, particularly in the underbody or chassis, should also be checked, as high mileage often correlates with rust in older models. The vehicle’s maintenance history implies sporadic compliance, necessitating a thorough pre-purchase inspection to confirm mechanical integrity.
