VAUXHALL NOVA1993 · 1.4L PETROL

The most recent MOT record provided is from August 2006, which means there is a twenty year gap in the history relative to the current date of June 2026. Because of this, it is impossible to determine a current condition trend or confirm if the vehicle has been maintained or roadworthy in recent years. The recorded mileage of 19,370 miles is very low for a vehicle that is thirty three years old. While this suggests light use, such low mileage often indicates long periods of standing, which can lead to perishing rubber components and the deterioration of seals. The 2006 failed test revealed several significant defects. These included excessive corrosion in the vehicle structure that adversely affected braking or steering, along with a split CV joint gaiter and an oil leak. There were also issues with the wheel bearing and the Macpherson strut upper support bearing. Since there is only one set of records from two decades ago, the trend cannot be described as improving or worsening. The vehicle's current state is unknown, but the previous defects suggest a history of structural corrosion and suspension wear. The most important checks a buyer should make are a thorough inspection of the chassis and structure for corrosion, a check of all rubber seals and tyres for perishing, and a full mechanical assessment of the brakes and steering.
