2014 Vauxhall Insignia 2.0L Diesel · VU63 ABX

The vehicle presents a consistent history of roadworthiness over the last three years. The most recent test on May 15, 2025 at 134,980 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating the car was maintained to meet safety and emissions standards. This follows a clean pass in April 2024 and February 2022. The only recorded anomaly in the data occurred in February 2023, where the vehicle failed at 130,583 miles but successfully passed just three miles later on the same day. This suggests a minor defect or consumable issue that was rectified immediately, rather than a chronic mechanical failure. At 134,980 miles, this 2014 Insignia averages approximately 11,248 miles per year, which aligns closely with national averages for a vehicle of this age. The mileage progression is steady, with an increase of roughly 4,300 miles between the 2023 and 2024 tests, and another 4,100 miles between 2024 and 2025. This regular usage pattern is generally beneficial for modern components as it prevents seals from drying out and brakes from seizing, though it does place expected stress on suspension bushes, coil springs, and drivetrain components. While the MOT record shows no recurring advisories or persistent mechanical faults, a buyer should still focus on common failure points for high-mileage Vauxhall models. Specifically, inspect the condition of the front control arm bushes and rear suspension, as these often degrade around the 130,000-mile mark. Given the age of the vehicle, a thorough check for structural corrosion on load-bearing areas like the subframe and exhaust hangers is necessary. The lack of recorded defects in the last three tests suggests a proactive owner who addressed issues promptly, but a physical inspection of the brake discs and fluid condition remains vital to ensure no hidden wear has developed between test intervals.
