Our Verdict
Proceed with caution — this 2013 Vauxhall Corsa has a mixed MOT record with two recent failures in consecutive years. The suspension and seat belt faults have been rectified, but the recurring front-end wear suggests closer inspection is warranted before purchase.
Given the 2024 failure for a fractured offside front coil spring and the 2025 failure for worn Macpherson strut pins and an anti-roll bar ball joint dust cover, confirm with the seller that all repairs were carried out properly and request invoices. The 2024 seat belt webbing damage and inoperative reversing lamp should also have been addressed — ask to see evidence of replacement or repair.
The 1398cc petrol engine in this Corsa typically offers reasonable fuel economy for urban use, though exact figures are not in the provided data. As a 2013 petrol car under 1.4 litres it likely falls in a lower road tax band, and insurance groups for Corsas are generally modest, keeping everyday costs contained.
Inspect the front suspension closely: the 2025 MOT noted near and offside front upper Macpherson strut pins/bushes worn, with the offside excessively worn, and an offside lower anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover failing to keep dirt out. Check for renewed bushes, struts and a clean dust cover, and listen for knocks over bumps.
This silver 2013 Vauxhall Corsa (UJZ6004) shows 48,661 miles on its most recent 2025 MOT, which is modest for a 13-year-old car. The MOT history includes passes in 2023 and 2025 plus two failures in 2024 and 2025, both related to front suspension and safety items. No aggregate model reliability data is available, so assessment relies solely on this vehicle's own record.
No aggregate MOT reliability data is available for the Vauxhall Corsa, so this assessment is based only on the individual vehicle's history.
