2014 Vauxhall Insignia Design Cdti 2.0L Heavy oil · HRZ 3008

The Vauxhall Insignia passed its most recent MOT on 2 September 2025 at 177,997 miles with no defects recorded, and the maintenance trend across the available history is stable with no advisories or failures at any stage. The September 2025 test sits roughly ten months before the current date, so the record remains reasonably fresh, though a new test will fall due within the year. Mileage rose from 69,074 miles at the March 2019 test to 177,997 miles by September 2025, an accumulation of nearly 109,000 miles across six years and six months. The largest single jump came between April 2024 (150,329 miles) and September 2025 (177,997 miles), around 27,700 miles in seventeen months, against a longer-term average of roughly 14,800 miles per year. A gap exists between the March 2019 and August 2021 tests with no recorded entry, and the sparse five-entry history shows clean passes throughout with no flagged wear items. Given the high total mileage and the absence of any recorded advisories on suspension bushes, coil springs, brake discs, or corrosion, the buyer should not assume these components are sound purely from the MOT. The tester logged nothing, but at 178,000 miles the front suspension arms, rear trailing bushes, and brake calipers warrant hands-on inspection for fatigue or binding. Exhaust emissions and structural underbody condition should also be physically checked for rust given the vehicle's age and use. A clean MOT sheet on a twelve-year-old high-mileage car reflects either diligent upkeep or simply a lenient test. The buyer should commission an independent mechanical inspection before purchase to confirm drivetrain condition and verify the odometer against service records.
