2016 Vauxhall Corsa 1.4L Petrol · SE16 ABZ

The 2016 Vauxhall Corsa’s most recent MOT on 2025-06-16 at 73,732 miles recorded a pass with no defects, but the preceding test on 2025-06-10 at 73,646 miles failed without any recorded defects. This inconsistency suggests potential administrative errors or unrecorded technical issues, though no specific faults were noted. The 2024 and 2023 tests also passed with no defects, indicating a generally stable maintenance record. However, the lack of detailed failure reasons for the 2025-06-10 test limits definitive conclusions about the vehicle’s mechanical state. The vehicle’s mileage of 73,732 miles over 10 years equates to approximately 7,373 miles annually, aligning with typical usage for its age. The 2024-06-24 tests at 57,793 and 57,780 miles show a 13-mile discrepancy, possibly a data entry error, while the 2023-06-29 test at 44,696 miles marks a 13,100-mile increase over 12 months. This suggests consistent usage without prolonged inactivity, though the sparse MOT history between 2023 and 2024 raises questions about potential gaps in maintenance documentation. A buyer should verify the exhaust system, as emissions failures are common in older vehicles, and inspect brakes and suspension for wear, given the absence of recorded defects. The lack of corrosion or structural issues in the MOT record is positive, but the 2025-06-10 failure without explanation warrants further scrutiny. A pre-purchase inspection should focus on the drivetrain, steering components, and fluid levels to confirm the vehicle’s roadworthiness beyond the MOT data.
