2008 VAUXHALL CORSA1.2L Petrol

The 2008 Vauxhall Corsa passed its most recent MOT on 12 June 2026 at 118,119 miles, but the test recorded corrosion on both rear coil springs and the rear sub‑frame, meaning the vehicle is currently roadworthy only with noted defects. The recurring rust issues and repeated lamp damage indicate a maintenance trend that is worsening rather than improving. Mileage has risen steadily from 69,751 miles in July 2016 to 118,119 miles in June 2026, an average of about 6,560 miles per year, which aligns with the vehicle’s 18‑year age and suggests regular use rather than long periods of inactivity; there are no anomalous gaps in the annual mileage increments between successive tests. A buyer should therefore focus on the recurring mechanical and structural issues highlighted throughout the record: inspect the rear coil springs and sub‑frame for rust penetration, examine the condition of the rear suspension bushes and strut pins for excessive play, verify brake disc wear and pad thickness, check tyre tread depth and sidewall condition, confirm that all lamps function correctly and are not cracked, and look for any signs of oil leakage from the engine oil pressure switch or other seals.
