VAUXHALL CORSA2011 · 1.2L Petrol

The Vauxhall Corsa presents as roadworthy with a stable maintenance trend, evidenced by the most recent MOT test on 20 December 2023 at 101,870 miles which recorded no defects. Prior tests on 11 January 2023 at 98,057 miles and 12 April 2022 at 92,408 miles also passed cleanly. The vehicle shows no recurring advisories or escalating mechanical faults across the available record, indicating consistent compliance with statutory roadworthiness standards over the observed period. Mileage accumulation sits at a typical level for a 2011 vehicle, averaging roughly 6,791 miles per year against the current 101,870 miles. The record reveals a notable plateau between 9 December 2020 (92,262 miles) and 12 April 2022 (92,408 miles), where only 146 miles were covered across sixteen months, suggesting the car stood idle or saw minimal use. A short spike preceded this: the 12 November 2020 failure at 92,243 miles and the 9 December 2020 pass at 92,262 miles show 19 miles added within four weeks, likely a post-repair retest rather than genuine driving. The November 2020 failure carries no recorded defects, a pattern consistent with administrative or non-mechanical test issues such as documentation or examiner error rather than worn components. Given the clean pass history since, the buyer should still commission an in-person inspection of structural integrity and corrosion points on a fifteen-year-old Corsa, focusing on subframe mounts, suspension bushes, and brake disc condition where standing moisture may have acted during the low-use interval. No tyre, exhaust emission, or binding caliper concerns appear in the DVLA data. The previous keeper maintained statutory testing discipline. Verify the odometer against service stamps to confirm the 2020 to 2022 dormancy, and check for undertray rust before purchase.
