2011 Vauxhall Insignia Elite Cdti 2.0L Diesel · TFZ 5051

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness status based on its recent testing history. The most recent MOT test conducted on 24 July 2023 at 107,703 miles passed with no defects recorded. This followed a curious failure just one month prior in June 2023 at 107,164 miles, though the record shows no listed defects for that failure, suggesting an administrative error or a re-test that cleared the vehicle immediately. Since the 2022 pass, the car has maintained a clean record without further failures or advisories. The mileage pattern is consistent with a 15-year-old vehicle, averaging approximately 7,180 miles per year. There is a notable gap in data between the 2019 test at 80,668 miles and the February 2022 test at 96,807 miles, during which the car covered roughly 16,000 miles over three years. Since the 2022 test, the vehicle has added approximately 11,000 miles in roughly four years. This steady, low-intensity usage pattern generally limits the degradation of rubber components and suspension bushings compared to high-mileage fleet vehicles. While the MOT history lacks recorded advisories, a buyer must still perform a physical inspection of common Insignia weak points that tests do not cover. Examine the front subframe and rear sills for corrosion, as these are prone to rust on this model. Given the age of the vehicle, check for oil leaks around the turbocharger and inspect the condition of the control arm bushes. The buyer should also verify the brake discs for pitting or uneven wear, as low-mileage use can sometimes lead to surface corrosion if the vehicle sits for extended periods.
