Our Verdict
A sensible choice for those seeking a low-risk small hatchback. The recent MOT history shows a consistent pass record with no defects noted in the most recent inspections.
When viewing this 1.4L petrol Corsa, check the service history to see how the 86,656 miles have been maintained, particularly regarding oil changes for the 1398cc engine. Although the recent MOTs show no defects, you should still inspect the tyre tread and brake pad wear, as these are common maintenance items for a car of this age and mileage.
During your test drive, listen for any knocks or rattles from the suspension, as the model aggregate data indicates coil springs and ball joints are frequent failure points for this type of vehicle. Ensure all exterior lights are functioning correctly, as headlamps are another common reason for MOT failures in the wider Corsa model range.
As a 1.4L petrol engine, this Corsa sits in a relatively affordable bracket for insurance and tax. Fuel economy will depend on driving style, but it is generally efficient for urban and suburban use.
Maintenance costs for this model are typically moderate, though you should budget for routine items like tyres and brake components. The estimated annual running cost, including fuel, tax, insurance, and basic maintenance, is approximately £1,200-£1,500.
Pay close attention to the suspension components. Given that the aggregate data for this model highlights coil springs and ball joints as top failure reasons, check for any uneven tyre wear or clunking sounds when driving over bumps.
Additionally, verify the condition of the headlamps. Since headlamps are a frequent failure reason in the wider model data, ensure the lenses are clear and the beam pattern is correct. Finally, check the brake components and tyre condition, as these are standard areas for wear on a vehicle that has covered over 86,000 miles.
This 2015 grey Vauxhall Corsa (LA15ABK) has covered 86,656 miles since its first registration in August 2015.

While it has seen one failure in January 2025, the vehicle has maintained a clean record in its most recent appearances.
Aggregate data for this model shows an average MOT pass rate of 76.2%, with common failures related to headlamps, coil springs, and ball joints.
