1995 Vauxhall Corsa 1.5L Diesel · M271 HRG

The 1995 Vauxhall Corsa presents a currently roadworthy status, having passed the most recent test on 1 July 2025 at 157,524 miles with no defects recorded. The maintenance trend across the supplied history is stable, with the vehicle clearing its last two annual examinations cleanly. Prior to that, the June 2024 and June 2023 tests each produced a fail followed by a pass on the same or near date, though the records list no defects against those failures, suggesting administrative or presentation anomalies rather than mechanical rejection. The odometer shows 157,524 miles against roughly 31 years of service, equating to about 5,081 miles per year, which is low for a car of this age. The mileage advanced from 151,061 in June 2023 to 154,205 by July 2024, then to 157,524 by July 2025, reflecting consistent light annual use of around 3,000 to 3,500 miles. No rapid accumulation or unexplained gaps appear in the data. The clean advisory columns across all five entries indicate the tester logged no worn tyres, corroded structures, or failing suspension bushes at the time of each examination. A buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and underbody corrosion, as a 1995 hatchback of this type commonly suffers hidden rust at sills and suspension mounting points even when MOT advisories are absent. The brake discs, coil springs, and exhaust emissions should be physically checked for age-related degradation given the vehicle's standing periods between low-mileage use. The repeated same-day fail-pass pairs in 2023 and 2024 warrant confirmation that no outstanding minor consumable wear was quietly rectified off-record before the subsequent pass.
